I'm not sure if this makes me feel better or worse

As such, young people are unlikely to think about the things that go into cleaning up their online presence after they have passed away. With acquaintances all over the country, if not the globe, multiple e-mail accounts and messenger screen names, various message-board and profile-site accounts, mailing lists that flood in boxes, PayPal accounts, e-banking accounts, and online video-game accounts, those who die with well-developed online presences can have far more of an effect on the lives of those who survive them than do those without a computer at all.

...like does this highlight the minor effect my life will have on all of yours, or does it highlight the futility of everything because my "being" is digitized.

This reminds me of a WoW vid I watched where a guild's leader died so they had an online funeral for him where like 50 guild members logged on to show their respects.

Their rival guild found out where it was and raided it.. slaughtering everyone there.

I lol'd so hard.

I was at an obscure message board with not many posters one time and so people pretty much knew each other and one of them died and the mods made a remembrance thread. I didn't know what to think it was weird because I just wanted to ask some lame questions.
