Un correo para el futuro

Via el post Envia't un mail a tu mateix en el futur de Betes i Clicks, descubrí la web EmailFuture.com con la que puedes programar el envío de un correo para ti mismo en el futuro.

EmailFuture.com tiene la idea de servir a los internautas para que tengan una herramienta que les permita recordar alguna cosa de aquí a unos días, meses o años mediante el envío del mail que tú mismo te escribes a fecha de hoy.

"EmailFuture.com is a free way to send yourself emails in the future. Whether it's a reminder email in half an hour or a message to your future self in 10 years. Go to our Useful Uses Section for a list of useful uses for EmailFuture.com.

Como dice el cuadro tan bien hecho, en EmailFuture.com primero debes escribir el correo electrónico, luego decirle a ellos cuando quieres que se envíe teniendo en cuenta que debe ser una fecha hasta el año 2035, y luego ellos hacen el resto es decir hacen el envío.

En la web EmailFuture.com aparecen los usos que dar a esta funcionalidad, y lo que no debes hacer con este envío programado:

Useful Uses:
*
Fechas importantes: E-mail yourself reminders on important dates such as anniversaries, birthdays, valentines day, etc...
*
Recordatorio de eventos de portivos o conciertos: E-mail yourself reminders on important dates such as when sporting or concert tickets go on sale.
*
Recordatorio de una fecha importante: Remind yourself of an important due date in the future.
*
Recordatorio para final del día: Send yourself an Email at the end of the day to remind yourself to buy milk, eggs or any other errands that you may need to run.
*
Envñio de un link para entrar días mas tarde: Maybe you saw something cool on the internet and want to send yourself the link in a couple of days.
*
Para recordar una lista de objetivos años más tarde: You can send a message to yourself several years in the future such as a list of goals that you would like to accomplish or where you would like to be in life.

Not So Useful Uses:
* Email your boss an automated out sick message (while you're at the beach!)
* Emailing yourself in the past. I haven't quite figured out how to build the flux capacitor yet to time travel. Maybe soon though!!!
* Sending emails to addresses that don't exist..... or is it?
* Sending yourself reminders for the wrong dates. If yo can't correctly remember your anniversary, then you're pretty much hosed.
* Sending an email to an address that you don't plan on having when the e-mail is supposed to be sent. For instance. Don't send an e-mail to your college e-mail account in 8 years unless you plan on having access to that account in 8 years. Chances are, you would have alredy graduated.... I hope ;)
