Oh Gosh that is a strange one.

 I can't quite decide if I like the idea or if it is dreadfully tacky/nasty.

I suppose we live in a technological age so anything goes - although I don't think I will be adding my deceased rellies on there.

Hmmmm it's still a bit strange - I'll have to have a ponder  ??? ::) :-\

Just had a look; not totally free. Items can be bought for credits (25p each) and minimum credits in blocks of 10; so £2.50 at least.   Has this got its home in USA?

Don't think it is for me or mine!

I'm not to sure that I'm that hot on this idea either.  I suppose with modern technology and the way that it is heading, people will go to any means  to remember their loved ones.

Don't think its for me either.

I think this is a good idea - at least from a researchers point of view, provided there are enough details.

This NZ site is pretty good, with photos of the deceased as well. I found a cousin on there, plus info on his wife, children & grandchildren, also home address, none of which I previously knew.
