You Die, Your Facebook Profile Dies Too

Okay, just look at the amazing effects of Facebook on our lives that hey, the company is now allowing us to "Memorialize" our dead friends or family members! Apparently, after  some public pressures from Canada’s privacy czar, Mark Zuckerberg and company told the world they’re now "memorializing" the Facebook profiles of those who graduate to that big social network in the sky. No Kidding!

To memorialize the profile of a dead person you know, you can contact Facebook via this form, entitled "Deceased." You must provide the deceased’s date-of-birth, email addresses they may have used to create their Facebook account, your relationship to the deceased, and proof of death, including a news article or obituary.

Of course, I would think some people might misuse this and provide some false info and perhaps let LIVING people DIE on FACEBOOK! Oh well, perhaps Mark should consider coming with a sister site call DEADBOOK! 🙂
