Digital will - what happens if I die

Nowadays everyone should already have at least an email account, facebook/twitter account, online banking account, blogger account, and many more online accounts. What happen if someone pass away suddenly without leaving the traces of login name and password for these account? It would take months or years to get the online companies to believe that you are the beneficial of the deceased. Some accounts you might want to notify the readers immediately, but how do you do it without the deceased's password? No one would like their family members to suffer even more when they found out they cannot do anything with the deceased online accounts!
