Aaron Swartz, Coder and Activist, Dead at 26

Aaron Swartz, Coder and Activist, Dead at 26. When I first heard about this last week, my immediate impulse was to share this tragic news with the first person I could grab. But in our house, no one else knew who Aaron was. While I didn’t know Aaron personally, he is someone who I’ve known of for years, who’s blog I’ve read, who’s products I’ve used, someone who’s passion I’ve admired. Aaron’s passing is, indeed, a sad moment for the Web.
