The tone of this article is pretty strange. Is Facebook really a great thing for dead people? Or is it simply ironic to have dead people's profiles being more active than living people's?

Anyway, I agree that Facebook shouldn't suspended dead people's profiles (and they can't technically). Social networking account is a part of one's life, just like a diary, a photo, or anything memorial. It shouldn't be cleared away.

Don't want to be spammy here but we recently asked quite a few folks "what do you want to have happen to your on-line accounts when you pass away" and there was a split for many of them. Some people want their accounts suspended/deleted when they pass, some want them left alone, some want them passed on to their families.
