If I Die…I Will Facebook Haunt You
The age old question, "what happens after we die", has been supplemented with the recent rash of online profiles and identities. It seems more people are concerned with, "what happens to my Facebook profile after we die." Morbidly, I have pondered this question myself. As I am already confident that we go to a giant Chuck E. Cheese in the sky when we die, what does become of our Facebook accounts.
If I Die is a Facebook app that is geared towards helping the world transition to your death. To simplify the app: it allows you to record a message, video, or text that will be published after you die. As you can see, my title is very relevant! The site guarantees the safety of your messages, storing them on a secured server. The process is as easy as 1-2-3:
- Install if i die on Facebook
- Create a video or a text message
- Choose three trustees from your friends
No longer do you have to worry about some schmuck giving your eulogy at your funeral (even if he is a good eugoglizer).
