What do you think about Facebook/MySpace posts after death?

When someone dies we all go to the page and post our sorrow, blessings, etc. I recently read an article in the paper about this company that would handle your emails and websites after you die.
Swedish site manages virtual life after death, shutting Facebook profiles, sending last emails -- chicagotribune.com

What do you think?

I think it is a process of dealing with the sorrow -- my 22 year old son's best friend was killed in a tragic accident - that was witnessed by my son and 4 other friends -- they still post on Michael's site --- as if he is reading it in heaven---- But I don't think they need to hire someone to care for the site!

I agree. A high school friend of mine died and his fiancee (at the time) still posted updates on his myspace page about their son and how much they missed him. I think it's how people deal with grief, like they can still talk to that person through their page. I agree, they don't need to hire someone to do it. If they are going to do it, it should be by someone who was close to them and loved them, not some stranger they don't know.

I think it helps people to be able to message the person. It makes me feel better.

Anna I simply loved your post and I honestly would feel the same way, and I personally feel it would make the family members and friends of the deceased feel comfortable to be able to leave messages so that the pain and grieve would not be so hard to deal with. love it tia. Peace. Catherine
