In this post, I will do like I have previous years: talk a bit about Hacking Chinese in the previous year, and then continue the discussion of what the future might hold.<\/p>\n<p>Naturally, I also want to hear what you think, both about the past and the future.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>What did you think of Hacking Chinese in 2014?<\/li>\n<li>What do you expect from Hacking Chinese in 2015?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Perhaps you will have more comments after reading what I have to say, but all feedback is welcome! Let&#8217;s look at Hacking Chinese in 2014.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hacking Chinese in 2014<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In last year&#8217;s summary, I wrote that I would try to spend more time on Hacking Chinese to see how that would work out. I have spent more time on Hacking Chinese, but not as much as I thought. To allow for a more steady income to support myself, I have written much more for other people than I thought I would, but more about that later, let&#8217;s look at what has happened on Hacking Chinese during 2014:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hackingchinese.com\/launching-hacking-chinese-challenges\/\">I launched Hacking Chinese Challenges<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hackingchinese.com\/launching-hacking-chinese-resources\/\">I launched Hacking Chinese Resources<\/a><\/li>\n<li>I published <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hackingchinese.com\/archive-2\/\">68 articles<\/a> on Hacking Chinese<\/li>\n<li>I arranged two Hacking Chinese meet-ups<\/li>\n<li>The number of monthly visitors increased by 50%<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you think I&#8217;ve done a good job, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hackingchinese.com\/about\/#support\">this is as good an opportunity as any to donate an amount of your choice<\/a>! All contributions are welcome, sometimes the action itself means much more than the money involved.<\/p>\n<p><strong>My personal top ten articles from 2014<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The articles I like most usually aren&#8217;t the articles that get the most attention, so I will take this opportunity to select my personal favourites from last year. Without further ado, here they are (newest first):<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li type=\"_moz\"><a title=\"View post Is Chinese difficult to learn?\" href=\"http:\/\/www.hackingchinese.com\/is-chinese-difficult-to-learn\/\">Is Chinese difficult to learn?<\/a><\/li>\n<li type=\"_moz\"><a title=\"View post Learning to write Chinese characters through communication\" href=\"http:\/\/www.hackingchinese.com\/learning-to-write-chinese-characters-through-communication\/\">Learning to write Chinese characters through communication<\/a><\/li>\n<li type=\"_moz\"><a title=\"View post Focusing on communication to learn Chinese\" href=\"http:\/\/www.hackingchinese.com\/focusing-on-communication-to-learn-chinese\/\">Focusing on communication to learn Chinese<\/a><\/li>\n<li type=\"_moz\"><a title=\"View post How long have you studied Chinese? 290 years or 58 992 hours!\" href=\"http:\/\/www.hackingchinese.com\/how-long-have-you-studied-chinese-290-years-or-58-992-hours\/\">How long have you studied Chinese? 290 years or 58 992 hours!<\/a><\/li>\n<li type=\"_moz\"><a title=\"View post About cheating, spaced repetition and learning Chinese\" href=\"http:\/\/www.hackingchinese.com\/about-cheating-spaced-repetition-and-learning-chinese\/\">About cheating, spaced repetition and learning Chinese<\/a><\/li>\n<li type=\"_moz\"><a title=\"View post 7 ways of learning to write Chinese characters\" href=\"http:\/\/www.hackingchinese.com\/7-ways-of-learning-to-write-chinese-characters\/\">7 ways of learning to write Chinese characters<\/a><\/li>\n<li type=\"_moz\"><a title=\"View post How to reach a decent level of Chinese in 100 days\" href=\"http:\/\/www.hackingchinese.com\/how-to-reach-a-decent-level-of-chinese-in-100-days\/\">How to reach a decent level of Chinese in 100 days<\/a><\/li>\n<li type=\"_moz\"><a title=\"View post The Grand Listening Cycle: Improve your Chinese listening ability\" href=\"http:\/\/www.hackingchinese.com\/listening-cycle-improve-chinese-listening-ability\/\">The Grand Listening Cycle: Improve your Chinese listening ability<\/a><\/li>\n<li type=\"_moz\"><a title=\"View post Learning how to fish: Or, why it\u2019s essential to know how to learn\" href=\"http:\/\/www.hackingchinese.com\/learning-how-to-fish-or-why-knowing-how-to-learn-chinese-is-essential\/\">Learning how to fish: Or, why it\u2019s essential to know how to learn<\/a><\/li>\n<li type=\"_moz\"><a title=\"View post A language learner\u2019s guide to wuxia novels\" href=\"http:\/\/www.hackingchinese.com\/a-language-learners-guide-to-wuxia-novels\/\">A language learner\u2019s guide to wuxia novels<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I think the reason there is a difference between what I like and what readers like is partly due to my imperfect ability to convey the importance of what I&#8217;m writing about, but also that some things are more easily accessible and also easier to share.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What I wrote elsewhere<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>One of the biggest changes for me personally is that I have vastly increased the amount of articles and content I write for others (mainly <a href=\"http:\/\/www.skritter.com\">Skritter<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/mandarin.about.com\/\">About.com<\/a>). The reason is obvious: I offer the articles on Hacking Chinese for free, but I get paid for the articles I write for others.<\/p>\n<p>I wrote 77 articles that weren&#8217;t published on Hacking Chinese last year (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.hackingchinese.com\/about\/bibliography\/\">you can see all of them on my bibliography page<\/a>). That&#8217;s a lot. It&#8217;s actually more than the 68 articles I published here and many of those actually aren&#8217;t real articles, but rather about a challenge start or a Hacking Chinese meet-up.<\/p>\n<p>I would prefer to write twice as much or at least spend twice as much time on Hacking Chinese instead, but as long as I haven&#8217;t found a viable way of supporting myself based on this site, that&#8217;s not going to happen. Ads and donations contribute, but they are very far from enough, I&#8217;m afraid.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hacking Chinese in 2015<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>What will happen in 2015 then? I hope I will be able to keep developing Hacking Chinese. I should also be able to get my book out and if that works well, others will follow. My main problem now is new taxation and accounting regulations in the EU making the selling of e-books a nightmare, but I hope I&#8217;ll be able to solve that. The book is actually ready and has been for some time.<\/p>\n<p>In other areas, I won&#8217;t make any promises. I will keep developing the site and I won&#8217;t run out of things to write about for a while (probably never), so Hacking Chinese will be here whenever you need it. By way of rounding off this article, I&#8217;d like to ask you what you what you want from Hacking Chinese in 2015? What do you think I should do to focus more on my own stuff and less on that of others?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Thank you!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I would also like to thank all the people who have read my articles, contributed guest articles, participated in challenges, engaged in discussions, left comments and generally made writing all these articles worthwhile. Without an enthusiastic readership, it wouldn&#8217;t be worth running this site.
