TEMPO.CO, Tel Aviv - Social network is now not only available for living people. An Israeli entrepreneur Shelly Furman Asa has had prepared a special social network site for the dead.
As quoted by Fox News yesterday, Asa has created a site named Neshama.info to gather photos of several tombstones belonged to the dead. Asa has spent up to US$40,000 to realize the bizarre site.
"It's a kind of social network for the dead or for their relatives," Asa told Israeli paper Haaretz. The service has been launching online since last month and has been through a year of preparation. The names of the dead can only searched in Hebrew. Hebrew word Neshama means soul, and the site is expected to be a means to remember the late loved ones.
"There are many things that have been done in connection with the commemoration of soldiers, Holocaust victims and so on. But we don’t have simple ways to commemorate – with high visibility – ordinary, everyday people who did not die in heroic circumstances," said Asa.
There are currently 120,000 gravestones on the site and Asa has plans to continue to expand the site.
