Unreliably Witnessed
Gobbets brutally and hastily ripped from the foul, rotting carcass of the internet. Placed here for the use, misuse and general abuse of rabid web scavengers. Another Unreliable Witness diversion.![Daniel Johnston at the Union Chapel, Monday 2 November 2009. And I didn’t shed a single tear during any of his performance. No, definitely not. Not even one. Well, okay, maybe one. Or two. [photo via crazybobbles]](http://2.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ksjb5bGXzY1qzowbro1_400.jpg)

Facebook is launching the option to “memorialize” (spit, shudder) the profiles of members who have died. When was a kid, dreaming of the future, I always knew it would be like this - that even mortality wouldn’t interfere with the business of being online and thus within constant and instantaneous reach of friends, family and spam requests to play Word Twist.
“When someone leaves us, they don’t leave our memories or our social network,” said Facebook’s head of security. When I read that, I didn’t know whether to burst into tears or go round there and punch him.
Anyone know if Elvis is on Facebook, then?
