subject: Creating A Time Capsule [print this page] All people should have a time capsuleAll people should have a time capsule. Time capsules are awesome items to capture your past and when unveiled at a time in the future, will provide a awesome amount of excitement for such a minute input at the very beginning. To make a time capsule, you should perform the following things.
Sign up for a gmail account and use the calendar system. If you are not doing this already, you should use gmail or something comparable all the time. On it, they offer calendar programs that you can take advantage of forever. There is a superb chance that, given a general email whose name you do not plan on changing, that you will be using this account forever. Set a prompt in that calendar and use text alerts. While it is vague whether or not it will still work in ten or twenty years, this is a great 1st step to make sure you remember to open the capsule.
Another way to make positive you open the capsule is put it in something that you utilize very rarely, but will always use. This can be something like Christmas materials or some kind of family ceremonial item that is forever passed down. This way, when you open it, it will at very worst be a good amount of time before opening it even if it is not an ideal time period that you originally desired.
Insert whatever you desire in the capsule, preferably small items that will remind you of neat times you had in recent history. The more thoughtful and more random these items, the more pleasure you will pull down the line.
