I noticed that there isn't an app where you can make your "digital will" i.e. describe how you want your profile to look once you 've kicked the bucket. Isn't there a market for that? Also, dead people's profiles may be ok for the first months, but after a long time it becomes kind of creepy seeing people long dead. Do they keep the profiles forever?

Hi, I'm the founder of LifeEnsured. We're that app. We let you do define what you would like to have happen to your on-line accounts after you pass. http://www.lifeensured.com.
Mike - great work! I looking forward to taking more time with your service and exploring it further.
Love your "social security death detection" feature. Hope it doesn't have any false positives

Thanks. We hope so too. End of life validation is a tricky problem we think we've become good at solving by combining several validations. http://www.blog.lifeensured.com/end-of-life-validation-on-li...
