I agree. But it would be nice for there to be a scaled down option for things. For instance, my friend died last year, yet facebook still puts up ads that she liked. It’s weird. I can see how that would really hurt grieving people too. But I’m not going to bug her loved ones about it. It’d be nice to see options on social sites to have just their profile stick around without the other stuff, so it’s a memorial page then.

Supposedly Facebook has such an option. Although, really, even if I’m alive and well, Facebook shouldn’t be advertising in my name. At least not without paying me a salary for the honor.

lol well, one problem is that privacy policies change, and if a person is dead they can’t update their page. I don’t know if this is taken into account or not, since I’m not going to bug the family members.
I wonder if having such digital lives will change some of our old beliefs about needing to go to a grave to feel close to someone. Will our social network profiles be the equivalent of visiting a grave someday?

Probably. 🙂 I read a concept about using QR codes on gravestones. You scan it, and multimedia on the deceased ensues. That’d be kind of nice, especially if holo-recording happens whilst I’m alive.
I’ll leave an avatar that thanks you for visiting my memorial.
