I’m Justin Russell

Back in the summer of 1999, “JRuss2001′s Home Page” was put online for the first time. The site featured a directory of calculator programs, song parodies, web site suggestions (including AltaVista as the best search engine), and a recommendation to use MSIE 5.

Eight redesigns and almost ten years later, I’m now publishing the newest revision of justinrussell.com. Given that the focus of the web has moved away from personal home pages to social web services, this new version serves as a launch point into these external sites and provides a listing of the latest content and favorites I’ve gathered on those sites. (Think of it as Collage 2.0.)

This is my first home page redesign in over two years, and I’ve had some help with this one. After inviting comments and feedback on Twitter, a bunch of people – including Caitlin, Lyndsy, Gary, Amy, and Hans – helped me work out some bugs and spruce the site up a bit. It’s still a work in progress, but it’s my favorite home page revision to date.

Now it’s off to BarCampBoston!
