Footnote.com Launches Application on Facebook Platform To Help Friends Remember Friends
(BUSINESS WIRE)
Footnote.com
today announced the launch of I
Remember, a Facebook application aimed at helping connect
Facebook users in order to share memories of loved ones. Few events in
life generate the emotions and memories as does the passing of a friend,
family member or colleague. However, without the appropriate tools and
forum to preserve and share these memories, a loved one's legacy may be
lost. Now with I Remember, Facebook users can create a meaningful
experience to honor those individuals that had an impact on their lives.
"A big challenge with gathering memories and stories together is getting
everyone to contribute and share in one place," explains Russell
Wilding, CEO of Footnote.com. "Facebook helps eliminate that barrier by
bringing millions of people together on a daily basis. The I Remember
application simply leverages Facebook's successful platform so friends
and family can participate in remembering people that meant the most to
them."
Using I Remember, Facebook users can share stories, upload
photos, post comments and add facts about an individual. These facts
will automatically generate a timeline of the individual's life and a
map detailing important places and events. Further, shared information
will undoubtedly spark more memories. Soon a robust page can be created
through the simple efforts of a few people coming together. For an
example of an I Remember page, click

In addition, contributions using I Remember on Facebook will also
be accessible on Footnote.com, a premier history website. From the I
Remember pages on Facebook, users can easily tap into the over 53
million historical documents found on Footnote.com to discover
additional information about those people they are remembering.
