A New Meaning for DOA

By Timothy R Butler | Posted at 12:29 AM

Most things you receive are guaranteed that they won't be dead on arrival. What if, on the other hand the whole point of its arrival was death? That must have been the thought that crossed the mind of founder of a new e-mail service: MyLastE-mail.

Apparently, the concept revolves around the idea that a person would want to send people e-mail messages when they died (you can send personal messages, not just a generic announcement). Afterall, as the site points out, you never know when you might kick the bucket, and you certainly may have things to say to those who you leave behind after your farm purchase. Yeah, right. I just can't see sending loved ones an e-mail message saying:

Hi there, I'm dead. I'll miss you.

RE: A New Meaning for DOA

This would be interesting for those that wouldn’t trust a lawyer to distribute their will according to their directions. :-) Kinda like a backup plan.

All in all, kinda silly.
