    I see what you mean, I think. It would be convenient to be able to look people up in a modern equivalent of “Who’s Who” in a central location, instead of trying to find people scattered all over the web. However, I wouldn’t want to be on there myself, and would worry employers would make it mandatory. Some employers already reject candidates for having no social media.

      A valid concern. I was more thinking it would be interesting if to have a comprehensive biographical database for people who have died. That way they won’t be forgotten as most people of the past have been. But I’m not sure how to create that without violating the privacy of the living.
