    Question what will happen to your blog after you have gone?

    The events of the last few months, acts of terror, natural disaster etc... have got me thinking what would happen if I were to die. Now I'm secure in my religious convictions to know what would happen to me but the question of what would happent to my creations has been of some consern.

    Last year the [url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/3693242.stm]BBC[/url] had an article on how your image online will out live you before it also dies a slow lingering death. Have any of the bloggers on this forum ever thourght about what will happen to their blogs after they have gone?

    My personal blog will only last untill my hosting expires before all those words of wisdom, teenage emotions, pain and suffering are deleted and forever removed from the web and from worlds eyes. My personal blog was started as just something to recored my reflections but looking back at them it would be nice to think that there was some way to imortalise thoes words and images, to protect them being deleted.

    My political blog is not so dependant on me being alive. Already it has attracted a few ghostwriters writing for it on occasions when I have been to busy or away from the internet. I would like to think that with my death my political blog would be passed like a batton to another writer of a simmilar political pursuasion but I can never know what will happen to it.

    I rather not think about dying though.
    And if you think about it, there are people who are in similar positions I guess. Those teens who detail their suicide on livejournal etc. And then they die, so their blog is left behind.

    I told my family to bury me with a laptop. I plan to keep blogging. I can report on what is going on in hell. Do you think there will be a place to re-charge my battery. The heat maybe bad for the laptop.
    Maybe I should have a back up plan of some sort.
