e-mail from your past!


In 2009, on April 25, a man named Greg is supposed to get an e-mail. It will remind him he is his own best friend and worst enemy, that he once dated a woman named Michelle, and that he planned to major in computer science.

''More importantly," the e-mail says, ''are you wearing women's clothing?"

''More importantly," the e-mail says, ''are you wearing women's clothing?"

The e-mail was sent by Greg himself -- through a website called FutureMe.org. It is one of the messages open to public view at the site, and Greg used only his first name.

''Messages into the future is something that people have always sought to do," said Paul Saffo, director of the Institute for the Future, a research group. ''In a way, it's a statement of optimism."

The ultimate sticky note reminder.
