Climbing a hill

I was curious on how folks out there process to climb a hill.

On my commute, I have 2-3 hills that I hve to climb. As I ride on a SS, I don;t usually attack the hill the same way as if I was riding my Trek FX 7.3. Basically I don't do the mad dash and pedal like crazy before starting to climb but once I am slowly engaged, I will start pushing with all my energy for the first few meters and than cruize my way on top. I also don't stand up as I think it make it harder which I like.

So how about y'all. Howdo you usually 'attack' a hill on your commute?
