4. Hogwarts Areas

4.1 HO Pensieve
HO Pensieve is a new concept developed under the new ministry. In the past, Hogwarts has had its own newspapers, generally under the name Hogwarts Pensieve. Some have been successful but all have ended up failing. The concept has been changed a bit and integrated with the Daily Prophet. Hogwarts announcements will only be found at the HO Pensieve. Announcements will be posted daily by a number of people. The initial news for the day will be posted together automatically at 7am. Throughout the rest of the day announcements will be posted.
4.2
House Common Rooms

Each house has a common room and a website devoted just to that house. The website is open for all Hogwarts Online members to view, however the common room is a private place for just the house members to visit and socialize in their house. House unity is extremely important so remember to be active in your house.

Hogwarts Online offers a personal chat room for all members to talk in. This chat room is used for many things. The Great Hall Chat room is a java chat room and should be assessable to all members.
