I hope Sunken Civ is OK, but...
If those nearest to us don’t know about or participate in FR, if something happens to us they won’t know to, or HOW to inform our fellow FReepers.
I’m going to put my login info and instructions in my “dead” file.
SunkenCiv is alive and well, over the weekend I ran into him on Facebook. He said something about the FR mods not allowing him to post as much as he used to, so he’s experimenting with other forums.
I keep all my login info in a database; maybe I should tell my wife how to access it if I suddenly disappear.
I have a file on Google Docs, which I've shared with my kids, with instructions in case I'm disabled or dead. I haven't added a section on "saying goodbye to online friends", maybe I should.
