guardiangrabI’ve always wanted one of those little boxes on the Guardian homepage. Lovely stuff. Read my article about death and social-networking here. Comments are disabled on the piece, so please, if you have any thoughts about it, please get in touch by emailing me or commenting here.

I’ll be posting my newly improved journo-CV on here tomorrow too, so if you’re the sort of person who can give me a job, email me. Yes!

  1. Love your article. Though on a different note, why would you have a blog memorial? (Unless you’re famous, of course…)

  2. Dave says:

    I don’t think you need to be famous to have a memorial. In fact, the people in my life that I’d most want to have a memorial — online or otherwise — are most certainly not famous.

  3. I wonder if I could leave instructions in my will for my site if I pop my clogs? As long as a few Google Ads were clicked on that could pay for the hosting!

    Call yourself a journalist? You’re practically illiterate… Hehe. Well done mate! Wonder where you got the idea from… Hmm…

    Of course – something else happens to your facebook too:

    not sure I agree with everything, nonetheless you mention a few good points.
