Kelly Clarkson Essay Sparks Nostalgia for the Older Internet
Original: Kelly Clarkson and How We Long for an Internet of Yore
A new essay uses Kelly Clarkson as a jumping-off point to explore widespread longing for the internet of the past — the smaller, less corporate web of the early 2000s. The piece argues that nostalgia for that era reflects frustration with today's algorithm-driven, ad-saturated online life, and it is striking a chord with readers who share that sentiment.
Why now: Nostalgia for the early internet and frustration with today's corporate web are resonating topics right now.
