Hi, I’m Grey the creator of Product Graveyard, a fun way to keep track of and commemorate our favorite products that are with us no more. I worked on this as a side project during my summer internship at Siftery. Hope you enjoy and please join in by contributing a funny story or eulogy for one of the featured products! If you want to help us find new products to feature, please fill out an “Autopsy” report here: https://siftery-track.typeform.c.... Edit: Thanks for the support and feedback everyone! As suggested by the community, I added four more products today. Keep submitting autopsy reports and I'll pick out the most requested products to feature next on Product Graveyard.

@ndduong Love the idea and design, but it feels too 'happy' for the topic - perhaps something more sombre would suit it better? ✝

@lmenus I wanted to make Product Graveyard an inspiring place where we can honor great products and be thankful that they were once in our lives. Hence, the theme has a happier tone to it :)

@lmenus Aww, but what if we don't want to be sad 😢 There are situations and cultures where commemorating the dead can be a more jovial affair! I grew up on Día de Muertos: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Da... And the calaveritas (fun epitaphs written about the dead - or living) that are a part of the modern-day celebration: http://www.calaveras-literarias.... https://calaverasliterarias.com.mx/

@ndduong This is a great idea, I think this is s a really cool project!

@ndduong @lmenus The site made me feel nostalgic remembering the good times. A happy kind of sad. If it were to be given a more sombre feel.. it'll make it very heartbreaking.

a question- is it one time project? or you are going to update db of dead companies? Time to time I see in PH similar projects, ironically most of them die after the launch.

@dainiskanopa We are hopeful that we will never get a chance to list Product Graveyard on Product Graveyard.

I love doing RIP startup tweets https://twitter.com/Nivo0o0/stat... and this product will make it easier to honor the fallen ones. ✊

This is a very sad place on the internet.

@bentossell Very true!

This is awesome! Great idea, great execution, lovely design. Equally useful for tech nostalgia and research. I think those 'In Memoriam' pics on the left of each listing should be shareable on social.
Grey Nguyen
@leandrobthomas Thanks for the feedback! I just pushed new changes to the site and now those "In Memoriam" pictures will show up on your tweets and Facebook posts.

@ndduong 12 minutes from request to update. Not bad!

Dammit why'd you have to remind me of sunrise 😭. But for real, this is fun, nice work!
Krista Lacida
@calebulf Yeah. Sunrise was beautiful! :(

Great design and easy to navigate. This site will be useful for people building new products as it will help them learn from similar products that managed to gain traction, but ultimately die.

Pros:

Great design, helps people do product research

Cons:
