DeadSocial is a platform that enables people to create a calendar of secret, timed messages. These messages are distributed on DeadSocial, Facebook and Twitter simultaneously after the user passes away.

Twitter, Google+) after the user passes away. This allows for communication and creativity to occur in death and those final messages to be told.
