Caturday in eternity
Dmitri Orlov's new essay proposes a nice idea how to deal with dead Web 2.0 users. Instead of winding them down via passwords kept in testaments etc. we should keep them alive! Prop them up using appropriate expert systems, keep them posting cat pictures and tweets. First of all, this stabilizes and enhances the value of the companies involved: more users - more value. And our Facebook accounts and tweets will keep a semblance of civilization going, whispering to each other, even when we are long gone.
