Facebook freezes deceased person's profiles

Depends on cost to Facebook: There is some labor involved in converting the pages.
There is, of course, the storage cost.
And by removal of advertising links on those pages, a loss of revenue.

On the other hand, if Facebook were to offer the families a "perpetual memorial page" similar to a grave and headstone in real life for a nominal fee; then the service would pay for itself.; Posted by: Dr_Zinj Posted on: 10/28/09 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
