Follow Up: To Memory

I thought this was a pretty admirable concept made by Facebook for the maintenance of deceased users profiles. Prior to this update, privacy settings locked down a departed user's account for viewing solely by family and close friends. This update in the profile settings creates a montage of photos, posts, and nostalgic memories when someone has passed away. It's a morbid topic i'll admit, but I do admire what Facebook has done in order to properly commemorate those who have used their website, and thus passed on into another world.

  1. Wow, that is interesting!! I would have liked to see a little more reflection as to how this might fit into our discussions about FB. To me this points to the way it hopes to function as our personal biography. What an amazing step to try to commemorate a life!
