Anyone used this site before?

It lets you write an email to yourself, and you specify when you want it delivered.

I just received one from 2009 me. I don't remember writing it. It is rather haunting to hear from past me.

If you haven't, write future you an email.

so what did you tell yourself?

FL630 · 1 Aug 2015 at 16:05

Very cool concept.

Had to send myself something to try it out.

Medicine - that's our current dream. We recently had our first ambulance session away (Taunton ambulance station - Chris Moakes/Carole Kydd, and then Tony & Tim). We LOVED it. We've planned another for January, hopefully that will go ahead.

I hope you're reading this, at university, a considerable way through the degree.. I really do. If you find yourself at almost 32, and you're not doing anything, then this is it. This is your prompt - life is rushing you by. DO SOMETHING NOW.

I must go. Maybe I'll write again.

You

Dearest future doofer,

Don't ever give out your email address to data miners/spammers/marketing bots.

Regards.

Dear Dr. Brown

On the night that I go back in time at 1:30 AM, you will be shot by terrorists.

Please take whatever precautions are necessary to prevent this terrible disaster.

Your friend

Marty.

Well played on your email. Glad things have worked out! Sometimes writing things down can really cement a plan and drive you into taking action.

This. My life would be so very different if I could send even a short message back to 21 year old me.

Ahh but would you REALLY want too? after all, we all grow up learning things. Would it make you any better?
