باہر چیک کریں گزشتہ سال recap – پہلی بار – اور کچھ اعداد و شمار اور خبروں میں hathix.com کے sophomore سال سے کے وزٹرز کا ریکارڈ رکھا جائے گا. میرے متعلق کی پیروی.

بڑے واقعات

گزشتہ سال میری تخلیق کا سال تھا, جہاں میں hathix.com اور متعلقہ سافٹ ویئر تیار کیا (اطلاقات اور کھیل.) 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, گولیاں, and the web
• Baker’s Dozen, a web adventure game and sequel to Sprinkle Safari

کچھ 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 بکری.
• More work on the hathix بلاگ.

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

Delicious website stats

2012-2013 was a great year for hathix.com. It completely obliterated last year’s totals – it got 11 times as many visitors as last year! Here are some more stats – important, interesting, or just meaningless – for you to chew on.

چونکہ فروری 13, 2012:

• 60,738 دورہ (11x as high as last year)

hathix.com’s best day was July 30, 2012, when 634 people visited.

Cabra mobile – studying on the go

My biggest project this year was creating a version of بکری, my free studying app, for phones and tablets (iOS کے, لوڈ، اتارنا Android, Windows Phone, وغیرہ)

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 لوڈ، اتارنا Android, iOS کے, کروم, فائر فاکس, 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, سفاری چھڑک. ٹھیک ہے, 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, آپ کر سکتے ہیں 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. دیکھتے رہو.

hathix بلاگ

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 زائرین (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!

The top posts:

• MLA template (23,998 views)
• کے سیٹ 40+ پیارا کارٹون جانوروں (10,570)
• More cute cartoon animals (8,892)
• 7-زپ (1,076)
• Introducing Sprinkle Safari (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 absolutely nothing 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 – at least twice as many hits as this year
• More marketing – getting the word out about hathix and its blog/software/games.
• More consistent blog posting – at least 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.
