Remember What You Put on Facebook May Stay There for Your Granchildren and Great Grandchildren to See!Facebook
is honoring the dead. The footprints that people leave in life are not
erased by death and Facebook won't erase them either. Although their
pages will have some changes, they will continue to be part of the
online community in memories.
Facebook will "memorialize"
profiles of the dead if their friends or family request it. Facebook
has been up and running for five years and people have put their whole
lives on some of these pages. It will make a nice legacy and one that
can be viewed by the people left behind. The accounts of those who are deceased will be different from regular Facebook profiles.
The
site will remove any contact information for the person and you will no
longer be able to log in. The person's profile also won't appear in the
"suggestions" section of Facebook. It will also allow only the deceased
person's confirmed friends to be able to find them in a search.
Facebook
has become an important social site for its more than 300 million
active users worldwide.
By leaving the pages up of the people that have
died, it gives family and friends a little piece of the person to
visit.
Photo's, thoughts, and other writings by people are what they
were about while here on this earth. To wipe them off would be like
losing part of them all over again.
This puts a little different
spin on your Facebook page. If you should go tomorrow, what you have on
your page will be what people see for eternity, or at least until the
eternity of Facebook.
Can you just imagine the resource this
will be? If Facebook had been around for a hundred years already, we
would know our family trees. Not only that, but we would have a special
glimpse into the life of our ancestors.
Think about what your
grandparents might have had on their Facebook account and how different
you might see them as you do today.
Facebook could be better
than any genealogy records ever kept. You will see people as they
really were, see their likes and dislikes, and even be able to read
their own thoughts.
We will leave pieces of who we really are for many generations.
