Hikaru's Official Web Site has been updated with new profile pictures, and news of two official books to be published in Spring of 2009. The books titled "Ten" (Point) and "Sen" (Line), are to commemorate Utada?s ten years in the music industry. The titles of the books appear to reference the lyrics of ?Deep River,? the title track off her 3rd Japanese language album.


?Ten? consists of an essay written by Utada, focusing on everything from her marriage and divorce, to the joys and pain of writing music. There is also a long interview conducted by Utada?s long time official writer, Ms. Matsuura, along with photos from her debut in 1999 to the present.

?Sen? is a collection of Utada?s official blog/messages and website updates plus photographs taken on location by the same man who photographed her ?First Love? album. Each book is said to be approximately 400 pages.

In addition, a"UH 10th anniversary" blog has been opened, featuring fan submissions from the call for ?Your Favorite Utada Songs.? The blog is tagged by song.

Also, there is also a 10th anniversary 'Gadget' (or widget). This small box can be installed on your Vista Sidebar, on your iGoogle or Yahoo homepages, an installer for xp, or any webpage
