Gone Man's Switch is a simple web application that allows you to create messages that will be delivered by email when you are absent (gone) for a certain period, AKA a dead man’s switch.

It is a free self-hosted alternative to deadmansswitch.net. It doesn’t have as many features, but it does the job.

Aside from the obvious, what are the wider use cases for this type of app?

Now you wont have the need to ask you Bro's to clear your browser history anymore.. set this up to auto delete everything. :D

I think if you are dead, you can stop caring about your browser history :D
