Have you ever wondered what was going to happen to your digital self when you pass away?
Your 'likes', your connections with friends and family, your photos, your purchases, the web sites you visited, your tax return, your curriculum vitae and job applications, the films you watched, the music you listened to, the books you read and rated, the meals you ate, the events you attended and (almost) everything else you experienced. There are few aspects of our lives that aren't stored as binary digits on a server somewhere in the web.
Whether or not you believe in life after death, the fate of your digital self is a mystery.
Does it die like you do, or does it take on a life of its own? Has heaven kept up with technology to offer its inhabitants their own social network?
Jason, Vince and Stephanie, the characters of the short stories in this collection are confronted with these questions, and the answers will change the way they use their connected devices forever.
*** BONUS MATERIAL: First chapter of Pascal Inard's novel The Memory Snatcher ***
