Me too, I have nothing apart from photos on my home system that I'd be
concerned about but I do have a website hosted at Bitfolk with a
genealogy database of some 60,000 people that I'd hope could be taken
over by someone interested in the contents and willing to keep it alive
for the benefit of the hundreds of people who currently access it.

So things like taking over the domain name and the website hosting do
really need to be covered in my will or whatever as my wife, assuming
she survives me, wouldn't have a clue how to sort it out.
