Internet Cemetery
Internet Cemetery is a web-based pixel-art graveyard where each grave represents a dead company, side project, or Minecraft server. Users can explore districts organized by cause of death, read epitaphs, and walk through alleys of failed digital products. The site is available in English and French and supports sign-in via Google or email code. Users can bury their own project in three steps: choose a stone or monument, write an epitaph including name, dates, and cause of death, then share a direct link to the grave. Pricing starts at $2.99 for a basic grave, $9.99 for a statue, and $29.99 for a private mausoleum. Payments are handled by Paddle, and there is no subscription. Every inscription goes through review before becoming public. The cemetery is public and permanent, with offerings and pilgrimages tracked for signed-in users. It includes a directory of the deceased, recent burials, and a browsable map of districts.
