Justin Hall’s restored January 1994 homepage is all fingerprints: “first attempt at Hypertext”, handmade links, pictures, jokes, curiosity, and a dorm-room web server trying to understand what this new public machine could be.

WHY IT STILL MATTERSBefore feeds, profiles, and optimized identity boxes, personal websites were rooms people built for themselves. This page is not polished content; it is someone discovering public hypertext in real time.
Best opened when the internet starts feeling like rented space. This is what a self-owned corner looked like before the landlord arrived.
