Israeli entrepreneur Shelley Furman Asa launched a social network for the dead, which he believes will be another opportunity for family and friends to preserve memories and cope with loss.
Photos of the graves and various information about the deceased can be uploaded to the Neshama website, which will allow searches by name. You can also light a virtual candle. Shelley Furman Asa believes that this site is another way to preserve the memories of the deceased and cope with their loss.
Initially, images of graves from five cemeteries in Israel were uploaded to the site, but accounts will increase over time. Asa commented on the launch of the project: “There are many things that were done in memory of the soldiers, the victims of the Holocaust and so on. But we have no easy ways to remind ordinary people who did not die in heroic circumstances. “

The site will be free to use for the first year. Subsequently, for a large amount of information, most likely, you will have to pay a symbolic amount – 3 shekels (about 0.80 Euro).
According to statistics, by 2065, the number of deaths may exceed the number of living among Facebook users.
