Facebook to become world's biggest 'virtual graveyard
The social network site i.e Face Book, currently has 1.5 billion users all across the world.
Researchers are predicting Facebook will become the world's biggest virtual graveyard by the year 2098.
Statistician Hachem Sadikki, who is pursuing PhD from University of Massachusetts, said that the Facebook will have more profiles of dead people than of living users.
He said that profiles of dead persons will be more as the social networking giant refuses to delete accounts of them.
Facebook, while working on this , has tried to sort out the problem by asking users to appoint a a sort of online executor in the name of 'Legacy Contact', to decide the possible result of their profile when they die.
