Field Notes Inside an Integrated Communications Agency

Has your Facebook account gotten a little long in the tooth? Now you can pull the plug on that bad boy putting it out of its misery. Seppukoo.com, named after the Japanese ritual of honorable suicide is intended to liberate the digital body. You can create a customized memorial page in honor of your deceased account, and Seppukoo will even break the news to your virtual friends. Just sit back as Facebook pals blubber on about missing you. Meanwhile, you’re forming a new social network with others who have committed the same (sniff) honorable act.

The best part? Your digital resurrection begins next time you log on to Facebook.
