I hope that I get old before I die

I found this article pretty interesting. And disturbing.

An excerpt which does a nice job of summarizing the article:
Vast numbers of pages containing digital references to deceased people, created for that purpose or not, float in cyberspace waiting for someone to update or remove them. It isn't difficult to imagine a virtual world in which Web browsers have to sift through oceans of data left behind by the dead. In fact, it's already happening.

Yes, definitely interesting and disturbing. And thought-provoking, in that way of "how would I arrange for that information to be put out if I died?" Which is intensely morbid. -.-;
