Andy, you might be interested in this segment from CBC's great
digital culture show, Spark:

http://www.cbc.ca/spark/blog/2008/04/full_interview_derek_k_miller_1.html

(CBC = Canadian Broadcasting Corporation... Canada's BBC or NPR)

It's an interview with a man who has cancer and is thinking about
his digital legacy.

"One of the things that Derek has been thinking about his digital
legacy, and what should happen to our web presence when we die. Do we
need to appoint a digital executor to oversee our online belongings?
Someone who would know all of your passwords and keep up the payments
for your domain name, for example, so your site would live on even
after you have gone?"

I listened to it a few months back so don't remember details, but
I'm sure you'd find it interesting.
