hathix.com’s 第一個生日是明天, so to celebrate I’ve gotten it a gift – 以全新的面貌! hathix 3.0, codename 蛋糕, 保留了老版的配色方案 (適當命名 hathix 2.1 “露珠”) but sports an airy new look that’s 乾淨優雅. 看一看 (或 試試吧):

你怎麼發音 “hathix”?
You’d think I get that question a lot, but actually I don’t – most people pronounce it a certain way and are absolutely, positively, sure they’re right. There are so many pronunciations it’s incredible, so who am I to choose the “proper” 一? Let ’em pronounce it however they like, I say.
That being said, the number of pronunciations I hear is borderline ridiculous. Here are the most common ones I’ve heard.
以全新的面貌
良好, the host switch went nearly seamlessly (so seamlessly, 其實, that I have no idea if the switch actually happened.) 如許, here’s something big for you.
If you’ve ever viewed the hathix.com home page, you’ll notice how horrible it looks. Or used to look.
Not very pretty, 右? 良好, it wasn’t supposed to be. I just threw together some code to make the site work; the look wasn’t at all important.
Well I soon realized that a) this horribly ugly look was probably hurting the site and b) I had some spare time on my hands. So I wrote some new code for the site and here’s what I got:
Switching hosts, expect some downtime
Just a quick notice. I’m in the process of switching hosts for hathix.com, so starting tomorrow expect some downtime.
I have no idea how long the site will be down; some people have said only a few hours but I’ve read on some forums that it can take up to a week. Not exactly what I’d call helpful.
And after I switch hosts it’ll take me a little while to import some databases and other fun web management stuff, which might take another day.
To make it up to you there will be some goodies heading your way once the site’s back up.

The quest for a decent home page
I’m not sure why home pages were even invented in the first place. 我的意思是, sure, you need a page to open when you boot up your browser, but they just make things, 良好, awkward. Plus they’re not very useful: most of them just serve as a landing page; you don’t really use them except to read news about how kids can’t bring bagged lunch to school (*cough* Yahoo *cough*.) And when you do that kind of stuff, you just get distracted from what you were originally meaning to do all along.
I want to know why that is and how I can help fix it.
