I can still find an Amazon Wishlist of a deceased friend.

Only if you tell them your user name!

That's why I locked mine

i think it's kind of creepy. everything is way too public now. :D

I'm dreading that revelation on Ali's part. :P

God forbid there should be two. :-)

Yeah, Julia's mommy and daddy met on #ireland, conducted an IRC/AIM relationship for almost five years before moving in together, and are currently sitting at respective computers down the hall from each other IMing while we conduct other online business.

Yeah, it is a little weird. Back when I had an internship at IBM, I had access to employee forums, and was browsing some old posts (it's kinda like Usenet but running on VM, if that makes any sense.) I ran across some from my dad, from before I was born. I immediately searched for all his notes and read the old ones.

The bigger question is if your stuff will be archived/otherwise still around when your (hypothetical) children are old enough to search the Internet. My LJ posts aren't around; a few IRC quotes and old Usenet posts are.
