good to know

is keccak256 the same as sha3-256?

no. ethereum uses the original keccak, before nist changed the padding for the final sha3-256 standard. the same input gives different hashes, which is why generic sha3 tools give the wrong answer.

text or hex?

keccak256("hello") in solidity hashes the utf-8 bytes of the string. keccak256(hex"68656c6c6f") hashes the raw bytes: same result here. pick hex when you hold encoded data.
