    Abstract

    This paper investigates the turn from individual to social online mourning rituals and introduces a research project that follows a new memorial platform where the best from both sides are sought combined. The Danish online memorial site from 2000, mindet.dk, is about to launch in a version 2.0, where the mourners in a dedicated space can use their sharing skills to co-construct the memorial.
