DeathClock.com

For those of you who are interested in knowing your date of death can visit this site……..the person just has to fill in few details about their date of birth and others,then u will be shown your date of death…….just a fun website which according to me calculates the date of death by adding the average life expectancy rate to the given date of birth…….also after giving your date of birth details.it displays your time left to live in seconds which makes it a little bit scary to see your time dropping down…….

Information Depth: 2 out of 5
Content Timeliness: 3 out of 5
Design/Usability: 4 out of 5
Website Load Time: 4 out of 5
The idea behind deathclock.com is simply that you enter some details about yourself like Date of Birth, your sex, your outlook on life (Pessimist, Optimistic etc) and your Body Mass Index and whether you smoke. Then Deathclock.com will calculate an estimated death date for you.

You can then follow tips on the site to put that date even further away by changing your lifestyle to a healthier one. I suppose if it inspires you to take more care of yourself it is a good idea. For me I still have that niggling worry about what the site is for; genuine or advertising revenue. Also I can't help but wonder if there shouldn't be a random element to the list of options if only for fun. After all you could be run over by a bus or hit by lightening!
Summary: Worth a quick look but there are better sites to help with your health
