Topic: An internet friend of mine died

Like Solipsist said, I think that enough of us cross paths now on Facebook, Twitter, blogs, etc. that the information would get around.

i feel like i've compiled enough information about you where i'd definitely know if you died.

O_o  Information about me?  But I've been so careful.

I thought I was the night.

well, There is that. I suppose if I croaked my son might post it on my wall, LOL

He wouldn't have to. People post on your wall as part of their own grieving process when they get the news that you've passed.

I have a Facebook friend who passed, and that's what happened for him. Also, his sister sometimes logs on and changes his status to some memory of him which is sweet, but always creepy when I see that a dead person has a recent status.

My sister had a FB friend who died.  Apparently someone didn't realize that and wished the dead girl a happy birthday.  *awkward*

that is creepy. I found out that a former coworker of mine dies via an e-mail from another coworker - the next day facebook suggested I friend the dead woman - the first time I'd gotten the suggestions - that was creepy
