Email Time Capsule

Time Capsule

I'm emailing myself questions for 1 year and 5 years. Like current job, school, etc... It should be interesting.

i sincerely doubt my email address will be the same in 5 years

I'm also curious if that site will still be around in 20.

I did it three times to three different email addresses.

That's a great idea! I wouldn't rely on one site to send out the emails, though... Who knows if they "cancel" that feature in the near future?

I just remembered... If you have MS Outlook, you can delay sending your emails out, e.g., "Do not send before: *date*". I'm gonna do that as well.

Eveyone on ATOT should contribute a one line message. In two decades, if this site is still up, as well as the email it was sent to, someone could post the entire email (saved by the bell anyone?).

They explain the measure they are trying to hopefully keep it going for 20 years.

How about a thread time capsule? (or has that been done before?)
