E-Mails of the Departed

[shakatany]

I came across an interesting article called What Happens to Your Emails When You Die? discussing what you should do with your internet mailboxes (and I assume ljs and websites) in event of your death (a morbid subject and not much thought about currently).

Buh-loody hell Shak, I've got the creeps now! Yes, it nice that there's a legacy of sorts left for us to remember peeps by.

I tried to contact someone at "Soulful Spike" about a possible tribute to ND and that they should post that last chapter but I never heard back from them. I think I'll save it somewhere just in case the lj vanishes (there must be some info somewhere re how long one will stay up without further activity).

This is why I print all our faves. Takes up an entire room virtually, but it's sortov the 'home office' anyways so that's alright. Shelves full lol. Our Deb did say once that she thought printing everything was a waste of time, space, ink and effort but I told her the internets is so ephemeral (did I make up that word?) I meantersay look at 'Dead Sexy!' I loved that site. Wish I'd saved all the piccies. Did save a fair few. :)

Shame they didn't get back in touch with you. I'd save it to disc if I were you Shak.

Well as I don't have my own computer at the moment I think I'll just save it at my g-mail account where I've saved several others like Laikokae's "What Makes Us" as there was a rumor she was taking down her stuff.
