Tweet of the Living Dead

So you want to live forever has a superstar hologram but you’re not as good at rapping as you would like? There may be a way for you to engage with your fan-base for years after you die.

Last week a UK start-up named DeadSoci.al made a big splash at the NextWeb conference in Amsterdam. Essentially you sign up for a free account and set up as many Facebook posts, Google+ updates, Tweets etc. as you would like, and schedule them against specified amounts of time that would have elapsed after your demise. Once a special person you designate logs into the site and indicates you’ve died, your automated social media posts kick in. And they continue for as long as you have them scheduled. See the short video below for more info.
