Is there life after death? In cyberspace, it seems, there is. Memorial websites and pages on social networking sites have been with us for some time. But now a website has been set up that promises to send out emails and letters from beyond the grave. LastPost.com pledges to save and send letters to coincide with birthdays, graduations, weddings and similar events. “By storing letters for younger family members, senders can be at important life events in spirit, even if they cannot be there in person,” it says.

Perhaps the most depressing aspect of this otherwise spooky development is that it proves nothing but nothing is safe from commercialism. LastPost.com has a mission statement. It wants to be “the world’s most recognised and trusted afterlife brand.”
