Book Review: by Thomas Duff
January 2nd, 2011
Thomas Duff has reviewed our book and says Your Digital Afterlife is “a fascinating read.” From his review:
“Especially dramatic is the comparison of communication from people who are serving during a time of war. Letters from the front-line are saved, re-read, age, and are part of an overall memory. Now you get emails that only exist in electronic form, and are quickly read, replied to, and saved in a mailbox. The immediacy and format of the message makes it more transitory, and less likely it will be handed down to future generations.”
