While I didn't find the word used in the article, the place where it was linked used the term "bullycide". It's an interesting concept, but I think it goes too far. Unless the bully is supplying the means of death, it's still the victim's choice to take their life. Yes, there are people that FEEL that there is no other way out, but there are other options. Counseling, getting adults involved, moving - if a parent had to decide between packing up and moving this instant and losing their child, I think I know what a good many would pick.
I said this in another thread, but I really think much of this has to do with the heli-parents who want to fix everything for their child. The child never learns to "fend for themselves" and I really feel like it makes them an overall weaker person when it comes to problem-solving and attacks on personal worth. I know the internet has increased the available resources and mediums for bullys to get at their victim, but I can't blame it all on that. We got AOL when I was 12, so I grew up at the beginning of keyboard courage. I had some hateful things done and said to me back then, but I learned to deal with it.
I am sad that there are those that see no other way and choose to end their life. It's a terrible thing, and I hate that it's happening. But can we really place the blame square enough to call it "bullycide"?

http://www.bullycide.org/ When I Googled "bullycide", this was the first website at the top. Unfortunately, they seem more interested in selling books than anything. Just the name of the website (Bullycide: Moms Speak Out) though sort of highlights my point. There is a mom on there that was quoted as wanting to mass-murder the bullies. I understand the sentiment, but it strikes me as them STILL post-humously trying to "fix" their child's problem.
