New SK website preview

As those of you who frequent the Message Board know, we have been hinting for several months that the web site is going through its second major redesign. A lot has changed since the site first rolled out over a decade ago and version 3 is going to blow your socks off! Because of the sheer volume of material we will be offering and the complexity of the interactive features that are being designed, we will be launching the site in stages. The new Message Board was the first of those changes to go live but even that has new features in development. To whet your appetite for what's to come, here are a few of the changes you'll be seeing in the months ahead:



Big things are coming...



What to expect in 2008 on StephenKing.com



A fully redesigned and reengineered Official Web Site featuring:



The Library - A brand new searchable database of Stephen King books, audio books, short stories, movies and more.



Multimedia Section - Offering audio book samples, movie previews, exclusive video clips, fan art, downloads and more.



Community Features - Tell the world what you think of Stephen's works with our new "my thoughts on this" comment system.



Updated Message Board - Offering new themes and style guides.



New Dark Tower Web Site coming in April - Combining the classic seven part epic with Marvel's Dark Tower series, the redesign is just what the doctor ordered for the constant Dark Tower reader.



"Wally World" - Codename for a Dark Tower Interactive Flash Experience coming Summer 2008.



The Office - Step inside Stephen's eclectic office and browse hundreds of artifacts and memorabilia in this Interactive Flash Experience coming Fall 2008.

WOW! Very impressive. Were you involved with this at all, Bev?

I was part of the beta test team that banged on it and made some suggestions for improvements here and there along the way.

At long last, we are officially launching the new and improved site. This is still a work in progress, though, as there is more information to be added and exciting features still in development. We hope you enjoy the new layout and design and appreciate your patience for the first week or so as there are sure to be “gremlins” that appear in the form of broken links, etc. as we transition from the preview to active status. To report any such problems, please use the Email Webmaster link which is at the bottom of the page.
