Death and the Internet…

Something has been bothering me for the last few months. I keep getting notices for me to “reconnect with him/her” or “help make ______’s experience better” from facebook. While this is not exactly a bad thing in general, it makes some uncomfortable/inappropriate suggestions due to friends having passed away. Things brings me to a bigger question. In this digital world we live in, how should we deal with death and the internet?
