Before her 21-year-old daughter died in an accident in early 2007, Pam Weiss had never logged on to Facebook, a social-networking site. At that time, social-networking sites were used almost only by1. But she knew her daughter Amy Woolington, a UCLA student, had a(n)2, so in her sadness Weiss turned to Facebook to look for photos. She found what she was looking for and more. She was soon communicating with her daughter’s many friends,3memories through passages that her daughter had written. “It makes me feel4that Amy had a positive effect on so many people, and I wouldn’t have had a clue if it hadn’t been5Facebook,” says Weiss.And she wouldn’t have had a6if she had waited too long. She managed to copy most of her daughter’s profile in the three months before Facebook7.
Like a growing number of sad relatives, Weiss tapped into one of the most powerful treasures of memories available: a loved one’s online presence. As people spend more time at8, there’s less being stored away in dusty attics(阁楼).These pieces of our lives that we put online can feel as eternal as the Internet itself, but what happens to our9identity after we die?
Facebook10its policy a few months after Woolington died. “We first realized we needed a protocol(协定书) for 11users after the Virginia Tech University shooting, when students were looking for ways to remember and12their classmates,” says Facebook spokeswoman Elizabeth Linder.
