"And to my beloved niece, I leave access to my online poker and bingo account and to my great-nephew Frankie, all my iTunes credits."
There is an actual TV commercial about this selling downloadable movie credits or game credits or some stupid thing I don't care about. :-)
She has now written down all of her relevant login details and passwords in a document.
People really need to start paying heavy attention to tools like KeePass, which is free (but I gladly contributed to.) I have thousands of passwords and now only have to remember one - my login to KeePass.

It doesn't come with the OS? :o One of the horrors of the iPad is that it doesn't seem to have a Keychain, so I have to remember my passwords.
Entities that host online accounts need to start thinking of the day their members are no longer 22. Simple analogy: my state law-- and probably most states' laws-- say that when you die, you are assumed to have given notice on your apartment. So the owner can't swing around a year later and demand retroactive payment from the heirs. There are further details involving dependent spouses and children. But most online services don't have to go there.
Hm. If you die, what would optimally happen to your 14-year-old's Facebook account? Probate takes ages.
