You can plan your Digital Funeral at one of these locations-courtesy of the digital beyond.com
Your Digital Assets and records  are very important when you die. No longer is there a paper trail for your survivors to follow to find your records. To make life easier on those who come after your death, Plan your Digital Funeral.

“”Very few Internet users have begun to think about what happens to all that data should we get hit by a bus.
“We haven’t truly seen the breadth of this issue play out yet, but I’m telling you, this is a huge problem,” said Chicago lawyer Karin C. Prangley, who has spoken on the topic at conferences. “Ten or 15 years ago, someone could go into your house and find the paper trail if you die. Now the paper trail is online.” -via www.washingtonpost.com
