My Take

I think of Justin Hall as an unsung architect of how we all live online now. Back in his Swarthmore days in the 1990s, he was already documenting his life on the open web, decades before oversharing became second nature to everyone. His site Links.net has run for an astonishing stretch, which tells me he was never chasing a trend but pursuing a genuine voice. There may be no trophy shelf here, but inventing a whole mode of self-expression earns a deeper kind of respect. The pioneer blogger quietly shaped the texture of the internet age.
