I have a feeling our email addy's will outlive us for longer that a moment. They may outlive the heat death of the universe.

:heh: Maybe some--but erif.org is mine, and on a friend's server. I doubt anyone will renew the domain when I'm gone. And his server... man. It's strange to consider these things that would live on if those after us feed them (as opposed to, say "books", or "monuments" of old...)

I've thought exactly the same! Pretty often, actually.

And when do websites decide to call it quits? LJ, Myspace? Facebook? Holders of a million and one memories? Photos, journals, friendships?

When corporations die, which, while they _can_ be more long-lived than "people", ... does happen.

Strange strange world when all the world's journals are in one man's house.
