email time capsule

[nickel]

email to the future, very interesting...


Most time capsules involve cramming stuff into a metal box and burying it in a hole in the ground. It's a method that works --but it's so primitive. What if you could write an email to yourself, and be assured of receiving it twenty years in the future?

That's what we've done with this email time capsule. Simply fill out the fields below, decide how long you want the capsule to be sealed for, and hit send. We'll do our best to make sure the message gets delivered.

Wonder if I'll actually have the same email address in 5 years, let alone 20!

I've had my Hotmail account for almost 10 years. I signed up sometime in '96, I believe, before they were acquired by MS. I could probably dig around in my folders & read some moldy messages that I never cleaned up. That's about the same, right?

you could email yourself and predict where you think you will be in 20 years and see how close you get.

I did this. In my personal folder, I wrote a letter to myself when I started college. I opened it last year. I'm pleasantly surprised with how lucid I was then, how much I've grown since then, and where I am relative to where I thought I would be.
