I would love for my great grandchildren to be able to read the things I write today, and see the photos I’ve taken.

Where should I publish them?

Dedicated hosting and domain are a missed payment away from being purged.

So is iCloud.

Facebook and Tumblr are a bankruptcy away to join Geocities and MySpace.

Own physical bedroom server requires maintenance which can’t be done when you’re dead.

The average dead person’s content isn’t easy to monetize.

Buy a lifetime sdf.org membership for $36 and publish everything there is the best I can come up with. But that’s predicated on trust.

How would you solve this?
