What happens to your data, research, and online identity after you die?
ScienceOnlineSeattle explored this topic at our Fall 2012 kickoff event. We dug into the intricacies of data and social media archiving, intellectual property vs. the Cloud, and other issues at the nexus of science, online, and death.
