There is a website called FutureMe.org where you can write an email to send to yourself to arrive on date in the future specified by you. I have written myself an email which will be delivered to me on my birthday in 2014.
Basically, it outlines my situation today and asks specific questions about how things have turned out.
If you could write an email to your future self - what sort of thing would you say? If you could email someone else's future being, what would you say to them?
It is possible to read the emails that have been written on that site (they are kept anonymous) and some are really emotional and others just daft! Im intrigued as to what happened when the 'Future Me' received the email (eg Written in 2005, delivered in 2008) - how did the recipient feel.
Just musing time..............

Since the Post Office Telegram Service ceased to exist on 1st October 1982 you may as well stop looking out for the messenger boy.

Exactly, send yourself an e-mail for delivery 10 - 20 years hence and e-mail may no longer exist. Of course, neither might you. eeek:

Rarelady is just a little girl, don't spoil her fun.
She has yet to reach our dizzy heights of jaded cynicism.

There is some death website where you send an email to your contacts once they know you have died. I doubt it works.
Some may recall that I got The Boy (age 8) to write a letter to his 18 year old self. I have it safe, assuming I sruvive another 7 years, which I doubt noooo:
If he ever gets it it could be an experience, I say no more
