(PRWEB) October 7, 2004 -- The Blog of Death(http://www.blogofdeath.com), a Weblog featuring obituaries of the famous, infamous and previously unknown, was featured on CBSMarketwatch this week.

In the audio interview with Frank Barnako (http://tinyurl.com/5qjrf), Jade Walker discussed how her blog spotlights interesting life stories of the recently deceased. A call for topic-appropriate advertising and sponsorship was also presented in the report.

Walker, the Seattle-based author of The Blog of Death, has always had a passion for obituaries. As the overnight editor/producer of The New York Times on the Web, she published the Obits section every evening and spent a year working on the Portraits of Grief, a collection of obits for the victims of the Sept. 11th terror attacks. When she was the editor of Inscriptions Magazine, Walker compiled the hugely popular R.I.P. section of writer obits. Now she spends her days and nights commemorating the dead on her popular Weblog.

"The Blog of Death pays tribute to those who've recently died by chronicling their lives. On the Web, their memory endures," Walker said.
