Google releases tool to manage your 'digital life' after your death.

Recommended Posts

Google doesn't want you to worry about the afterlife -- or at least what's left of your digital assets once you're gone.

 

Google's new "Inactive Account Manager" feature lets the user choose what to do with his/her data if the account is not used for a long period of time.

 

Announced in a blog post Thursday, the feature is targeted at people who want to create an automated digital will, however, the service could also be useful in less morbid situations -- when a user can no longer access her account, for example. (What if you plan to go on a lengthy expedition outside Wi-Fi range and need to put your Gmail on pause?)
