Lisa Bonchek Adams, "prominent online writer" who blogged about her cancer, is dead:

I'm mainly posting this because in the past 4 days, I "digitalized" my candidate list and googled a lot of people with cancer. It seems to me that "terminal illness fame" is spreading in the age of the internet. And I wonder if the DDP or other dead pools will have to adjust their rules regarding qualifying obits or about what constitutes fame. Lisa Bonchek Adams also made it to the Guardian in 2014:

Touching story. The guy even received a DDP-qualifying obit:

But then not every internet celebrity catches the attention of Ryan Gosling.

Grooveshark founder Josh Greenberg found dead in his own home aged 28, four months after he'd been forced to shut the site down.

Oh dear, well, I was instantly thinking of suicide, but apparently, it's not the case (for now).

A gang armed with machetes hacked a secular blogger to death at his home in Dhaka on Friday in the fourth such murder in Bangladesh since the start of the year, an activist group and police said.

Niloy Chakrabarti, who used the pen-name Niloy Neel, was killed after the gang broke into his apartment, according to the Bangladesh Blogger and Activist Network, which was alerted to the attack by a witness.

The woman who reviewed 31000 books on Amazon, Harriet Klausner, has died at 63:

 

http://motherboard.vice.com/read/woman-who-reviewed-31000-books-on-amazon-dies

 

She says she was a speedreader, reviewing 2 books a day. 31000 books divided by 365 days, that's 41 years, or, since it's two books per day, 20.5 years...

Jake Roeper of VSauce3 has a terminal sarcoma, could be a good test to see if 157,000 YouTube subscribers is enough to get you a Daily Mail obit.

TotalBiscuit quits all social media but says he still expects another "two-to-three years minimum" on this planet.

 

Pardon me for thinking he'd like to chat it up if't were the case.

​I always admire the over-positive cancer patients. Gone by July.

Already lost a Jimmy Bain (http://www.deathlist.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=2389&p=250772) so the Reaper going for the Bain double!

It won't be a corpse, some chap in the morgue will just pull out the plastic plug in her ankle & she'll deflate into a neat plastic package & given to her daughter as her Xmas present.

 

Hang on, it sounds like he's pulled the plug out already.... Prrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffft.

I see this person's death has been reported by the BBC. What did she actually do?

 

"I knew that I no longer wanted to work for someone else in a 9-5 job. I couldn't be without creativity and I had to be true to myself in this next chapter of my life.

Modelling is not as glamorous as one would think, I have learned. It's incredibly competitive.

However, I was feeling a bit 'judged' as being a 'model' so being able to grow my business and work with other influencers and brands and negotiate for myself - that really has created a dream job with the marriage of the two sides of the industry."

Instagram star (?) Sarah Bambey dead, probably because of suicide, unless they are covering it up completely:

 

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3476036/Pretend-Health-Freak-Instagram-blogger-Sarah-Bambey-dies-age-22.html

 

She had an Instragram blog (?) on healthy recipes and clean living.
