I suppose we are entering a new era where there are more final matters that need to be arranged ahead of time.
I always get nervous when a blogger, or a poster friend on a forum suddenly stops posting. If they are absent for weeks I think have they died?
I need to put in the safe deposit box the pass password for this blog and my other most loved forums for someone I designate to tell the news if I pass on and my requests. I suppose as our lives become more intertwined with online communities and other social networks this will be important. In fact it will become essential so people don't perpetrate a fraud by impersonating us.
I was thinking of this today when I saw this this article about a daughter and the lengths she went to to find here dad's online gaming friends. See Death leaves online lives in limbo in USA Today.
