Accio Canon Portkey!
LexiconOur friends at our Floo Partner the Harry Potter Lexicon have been hard at work creating a new way to enjoy and delve deeper into the world of the Harry Potter novels. Steve Vander Ark and his team have created a Canon Portkey, which you can use to explore what they are calling 'events' or a discrete scene in the books. For each scene, data entry volunteers entered some factual information such as the location of an event, the date and time, and the page numbers in various editions of the novels. There are also tags and icons which pertain to these events and will allow for greater depth and exploration of each event. Still in beta form with a few things being tweaked, with the data entry still very much an ongoing process, you can learn more about this here, and Accio Canon Portkey here to enjoy this cool research tool. Enjoy!
Wow, it sounds great!!! The HP Lexicon is soooooooooooo brilliant, Steve and his crew do a great job.

i think it's the first look at dh as a book (look at how thick it is), and not just the cover. it's really something.
I was having so much fun on the site, I forgot to come back and vote until 2 hours later!
grrrrr.... it say theres an error and i cant see it :-(
How amazing is that? Thank you all so much! I'll be using that shortly - I have this theory that won't leave me alone.
500 - Internal Server Error is all that comes up.
Blah. I'm getting an error.
I guess being on leaky's main page wasn't good for the server?
YAY! Finally :D I was missing this news here, that portkey is up for days now!
Great work, Lexicon people, really fantastic!
