subject: The New Digital Time Capsule [print this page] As hurricane season comes around again, I find myself once again thankful to live someplace that is not prone to these kinds of natural disasters. So many people around the world are faced with regular interruptions of their day to day livesfrom Hurricanes to Twisters, to earth quakes it's no wonder that time capsules were so prevalent in the years past! And it's not just natural disasters that can take everything with ithouse fires can take your entire family biography in one hot flash!
Perhaps that time capsule idea isn't so bad! Though, perhaps the time capsules of yesteryear aren't as foolproof those today, which boast not only a greater safety value but also new technologies such as the ability to add video wills and attach digital photo albums. Switching gears from the traditional time capsule, a digital page can keep your family scrapbook safe, away from the wilds that are the elements.
With digital time capsule web sites, like that of MyHeartwill.com, you can upload full digital photo albums, scans of keepsakes and memorabilia, and even a video will. Time capsules have sure come a long way.
No longer will your photos be unorganized and scattered in basements and albums, as you can now upload them, name them, and date them. Being able to organize your personal page so that generations after you can read your stories, see your pictures, and even watch your video will allow future generations to get to know you, and your family story.
Hurricanes, tornados, earthquakes, and fires are all frightening and potentially deadly events, and finding a way to make sure they don't destroy your family history is as easy as building your won digital time capsule.
