Are You Dead?
DiedOnline.com - The Internets first ever death notification system!
Ever wonder how your online buddies would know if your dead or not? That is the question I was pondering late one night. How would my online buddies ever know if I had passed away? Then, I came up with the ultimate solution! DiedOnline.com - a website that will automatically notify your buddies if you die.
How does it work? You place special HTML code on your website, in your email signature, in your AIM sub-profile and pretty much wherever you can place HTML code. This will display a little image saying if you are dead or not.
You log into the member area within the time period you specify (your death check date). When you log in, the system knows you are alive. If you do not log into the system by the specified date, you will be labeled as dead.
How would all your online friends know if you died? Although I've also thought about this it still seems kind of morbid and twisted in a black humour sort of way.
In my case it would be useless. Although I'm tempted to join I KNOW I would never remember to login by my due date. Everyone would think I was dead when, in fact, I was just disorganized.
