The founder of monster.com has started a new social networking site for 50+ year olds. Eons.com is described this way:
Instead of career and school sections, Eons.com has interactive games to build brain strength, news on entertainment and hobbies for older people, a personalized longevity calculator and tips to live longer.It also has a nationwide database of obituaries dating back to the 1930s to which people can add photos and comments.
In addition to adding photos and videos to obituaries, members of Eons.com can sign up to receive an alert when someone from a particular area dies or in response to pre-defined keywords such as a company or school name.
I’m sure there is more to the site than that, but it certainly has a macabre side to it.
