hathix.com의 두 번째 생일 & 검토에있는 년

hathix.com is finishing up its 2nd year of existence. As has become 전통, 나는 블로그 게시물 내가 작년에했던 모든 강조 표시하고 내년에 상점에 뭐가 살펴보면 만들고 있어요.

체크 아웃 작년 뉴스 레터를 살펴 – 최초의 – 그리고 hathix.com의 학년 년에서 일부 통계 및 뉴스에 날 따라와.

큰 이벤트

작년 내 생성 해였습니다, 나는 hathix.com과 관련 소프트웨어를 개발 곳 (앱과 게임.) This year I narrowed my focus and worked on a handful of major projects that represent huge upgrades to hathix.com:

• Cabra mobile, the ultimate studying app brought to phones, 정제, and the web
• Baker’s Dozen, a web adventure game and sequel to Sprinkle Safari

약 smaller projects that still deserve mention:

• An online hub for graphing calculator programs (for TI graphing calculators.)
• A simple and powerful home page.
• Further updates to the desktop version of 염소.
• More work on the hathix 블로그.

Let’s take a look at these – but first, some yummy website stats.

Delicious website stats

Cabra mobile – studying on the go

My biggest project this year was creating a version of 염소, my free studying app, for phones and tablets (아이폰 OS, 안드로이드, Windows Phone, 기타)

I began developing it in summer 2012 and released it in August. I’m going to make a more detailed blog post on Cabra mobile later, but suffice to say it’s been a huge success. It’s gotten 22,051 uses online.

It’s available on 안드로이드, 아이폰 OS, 크롬, 파이어 폭스, and pretty much any other platform you can imagine. It’s essentially a web app so you can use it on any device that has internet connection.

Baker’s Dozen – a sequel to Sprinkle Safari

You’ll recall that I spent a lot of time last year developing a web adventure game, 사파리에게 뿌려. 잘, once I’d finished that I really felt like diving back into the world of missing donuts, cartoon animals, bumbling bad guys, and cheesy dialogues, so I started work on a sequel to Sprinkle Safari, which I’ve dubbed Baker’s Dozen.

I’ve spent a ton of time working on it – I’ve been at it since May – and yet it’s far from completed. That should tell you a bit about how deep I intend to make it. For now, 할 수 있습니다 play some sample levels to get a feel for what the final game will be like.

I’ll make another big blog post when the game’s finished. 지켜봐 주시기 바랍니다.

hathix 블로그

I’ve continued work on the hathix blog and made quite a few blog posts. The blog’s been extremely successful and gotten a ton of visitors.

• 12 posts this year
• 56,873 방문자 (not all of these are counted in the hathix.com stats)

The blog’s best month was December 2012, when it received 11,238 views. Its best day was December 10, 2012, when it received 1,090 views!

• 더 귀여운 만화 동물 (8,892)
• 7-지퍼 (1,076)
• 뿌려 사파리를 소개합니다 (1,046)

Some other projects

There are always a few side projects I have that I never really publicize. Here are a few I’ve been working on:

• A hub for programs for TI graphing calculators. Here you can download programs to help you with math/science classes or calculator games for boring days in math class.
• An even better home page. This summer I gave hathix.com’s simple home page a serious revamp to look and work even better. Check it out – you may like it.
• More updates to the desktop version of Cabra. The latest version (0.7.0) lets you redeem points you earn from studying for virtual prizes – a great motivator. I’m planning more major releases in the future that integrate more with Cabra mobile.
• A secret project that has 아무것도 to do with computers or technology. Watch this space.

So in conclusion…

2012-2013, hathix.com’s second year, has been a year of huge growth (11-fold!) and major new projects. I think I did a good job of building off of my previous software/website development and acquiring some new skills in the process.

2013-2014, year #3, is going to be a tough one for me personally as I finish up my junior year of high school, enter senior year, do college applications, and prepare for college. Despite that, I’m still going to spend some time on my favorite hobby, hathix.com. Year #3 will focus on refining existing projects on hathix.com and finishing ongoing projects. I don’t anticipate any major new developments. Other goals:

• More growth – 적어도 twice as many hits as this year
• More marketing – getting the word out about hathix and its blog/software/games.
• More consistent blog posting – 적어도 2 blog posts per month.
• More diversification – perhaps creating some content that has nothing to do with technology.

Year #2 has really turned hathix.com from a baby to a legitimate website. I’m looking forward to the next year, which promises even better things.
