Hi thanks for usefull link.

One other thing to consider

headzred — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 03:53:20 -0600

There's another aspect of this thing I hope you do better than another blog site I read. I would caution you against "bloggers" who post blogs that echo and/or support the content on their own, commercial (paying) websites, or that promote the products or services that pay for advertising on those sites. There is one in particular who dubiously uses professional clout to push a personal/professional agenda and generally makes the blog into an advertisement for him/herself and his/her other site(s). It may or may not be a gray area, but it's worth considering.

How odd

Wow - getting invited to re-connect with someone who passed on, now that is one very spooky email. Similar but not as bad as receiving a letter I wrote to a friend that was returned to sender (me) about 2 weeks after his funeral.....that was a sad moment indeed.

Facebook Struggling To Deal With This

webtrainingwheels — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 11:03:20 -0500

I had never even thought about this issue before reading your post, it was a real eye-opener. Coincidentally I have just been seeing some complaints regarding Facebook's "reconnect" feature they have been highlighting lately. People are complaining because Facebook is suggesting they 'reconnect' with people that have passed away. So clearly there needs to be a better mechanism in place to deal with this issue. Thanks for raising this issue and for the resources you provide.

Wow!

Great post. Something all we mortals need to think about. I have the will, power of attorney, health care proxy. Now, another thing.

On the other hand, I won't be 'round so will I care. (Just kidding.)

Hi -

I try to read all posts not just the editor posts when I log on. I'm relatively new to Blogher as well. Hope you find things to inspire you.

All the best.

I agree with you...

Totally agree on the Eerie thing, to a degree, nice memorial, but on the other hand....

And what happens if/when these sites sink in with longevity and there are more accounts/people affected with passing away. Just an interesting thought

You're thinking ahead!

Great idea Virginia...of course most people don't think to be so organized & proactive, but it IS an excellent strategy. Thanks for chiming in.

I wrote a bunch of instructions

and stuck it in the note book that has my will and other legal documents. My kids know where this is, and they know how to find my passwords. I hope they can take care of things without too much hassle from a TOS agreement.

Good Point

It definitely makes sense to consider all of these things now that most of us our so entrenched in the digital age. A good friend of my little sis passed away. I didn't know her but seeing her My Space profile and knowing that this person was no longer around to post status updates and that it would be sitting there for all eternity was sort of erie.

Good Point

Here's another post

I was so glad when you folks decided to let men in. I wanted to be part of this network because I had such respect for fellow food bloggers such as Kalyn, Alanna, Elise, and others who were already part of it. I knew them to be honest and ethical journalists and if they trusted BlogHer, I was willing to do so also. I read your terms carefully before signing on and read each amendment carefully. You guys are doing a great job. And one of these days I'll make enough money to justify a conference - or not, Seriously Good may be irremediably inconoclastic, doomed to be a food blog for the pleasure of serious (or quirky) fooderatis.
