sounds_sound: Facebook doesn't represent general demographics either. How many people over 60 have an account these days? Anyway. I remember there used to be a site called MyDeathSpace that collected all the myspace pages of the recently deceased. I just checked it out and it's still around but very different from what it used to be. I liked the original version for its unmediated look into people's loss and their kind and loving comments. Those little private love letters - juxtaposed with an open forum posting style is intriguing none the less.

I think the idea of having a digital soul is great. There is a non-profit group that has been working since 1996 on archiving the internet. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Archive Ever want to go back to the 90's and reminisce with your old clunky bookmarked pages? Now you can.
