This concept is similar to writing something in junior high and having your teacher mail it to you years after you left the school. It would be so exciting to get mail from yourself you had forgotten you wrote.
Future Me is a website that does exactly that, via email. All you do is create a new entry in a basic email format starting with “Dear future meâ€, you than select a date you wish to receive your message to the future and voila!
Not limiting the site to just a simple email, Future Me also allows you to read other peoples very public but anonymous emails which they sent to their future selves.
They have also taken these public entries and compiled them into a book which is appropriately titled Dear Future Me, Hopes, Fears, Secrets, Resolutions available on Amazon for 16.99.
