去这里给未来的自己写封信

forcode:大约一年前,我写了一个帖子:《写给一千年后人们的一封信(来自forcode)》,然后半年后收到了一封回信:《给千年之前的forcode的回信》,并且还在网络上发现若干封篡改此信并添加新内容的模仿之作。另外,forcode在三个月前的帖子中讨论过"如何让你的博客在你死后继续更新",这些帖子中的共同主题就是"未来的邮件"。昨天,从别人的博客看到了下面这个网站专门提供"给未来的自己发邮件"的服务,并且还允许你公开这些邮件的内容,并且,该网站还精选了100封给未来的自己的邮件,编成了一本书。你也可以去这个网站给未来的自己写封信,不过这个网站可以设定的最近的未来是90天后,最远的未来是2037年底,但是,这个网站真能存在到2037年吗?很值得怀疑,这样的服务最好由google这样的大公司来提供更靠谱点。另外,此站对中文支持不是很好,如果哪位读者有兴趣,可以做一个中文版的类似网站。forcode以前也说过,等第一代网民走向人生的终点,相应的针对老年网民的虚拟遗产托管服务(博客、email、聊天记录、密码、游戏装备等)一定会兴旺起来,那些涉及到个人隐私的信息,可以经本人授权而在一百年后允许公开,于是,一百年后的人们可以合法阅读到一些早已作古的人的隐私信息:email、聊天记录等。而针对这些隐私信息的研究也会激发一些人的兴趣,对于研究人的行为可能也会有所帮助。

    我希望等我们这一代人到了60多岁,google会发现,在虚拟财产方面,很多人都有需求,google应该退出专门的虚拟财产托管服务。

    google group是基于google收购的usenet的数据,usenet积累了从1970年代开始的网络论坛资料,对于google这样的超级大公司,有理由相信,即使该公司销声匿迹,它拥有的数据也还会继续存留,被另一个收购它的公司接受或者有别的去处,不可能直接扔掉。

    an awesome idea!


FutureMe Book? Cool!
order Dear Future Me on amazon.com
Order it today on Amazon.com (shameless plug for jay's employer)
So, back in 2006, some folks approached us with the idea to compile a book of all of the best FutureMe "public (but anonymous)" letters.* Being published sounded pretty nifty to us, so we joined forces with our friends over at F+W Publications (if you ever need a publishing house, Amy and the rest of the kids at F+W are your people).

Now, after plowing through all the public letters (you have no idea what kind of an undertaking that was -- and neither did we), we've put together what we think is a darn cool book. With a really shiny cover.

What's The Word?
Hey future me.

I originally was planning on making this short and to the point but..come on, we've never been that way. Well, maybe you are. Who knows? In the time it takes you between when I send this and when you read it you might be a completely different person! Creepy isn't it? To think that what you are right now could be completely separate from what you originally thought you would end up being.

Remember that time you got addicted to pain pills because they made you feel outgoing and fun? Life was a lot easier then wasn't it? Maybe you're back on them by now..I guess I kind of wish I was too. Days like these drag on way too much and no matter how happy I feel I know that it's a desperate struggle whereas medication would do it in a heartbeat.

Are you still smoking? God, that stuff will kill you. Hopefully you haven't gotten sick from it yet. At least nothing serious. Though it'd be pretty awesome to have that smokers voice. Jack Bauer shit, for real.

Just so you know today is a day after coming home from the Warped Tour. Your highlight of your day was when you got to sing with a ton of other kids with the lead singer of So They Say. That was awesome man! Have you met any other bands? I hope you've met The Format by now. They are after all our favorite band, hands down. I hope they released news about the new album. Some new tracks at least. Hopefully it'll be as amazing as Dog Problems was.

I would imagine you've lost a few of your barely there friends by now. You know the ones. If not, congrats dood. The mainstays are still there though, I'm sure - Holly, Jess, Meg, Brian, Steffi, and the rest. I hope Guitar Hero III and Rock Band were as amazing as you thought they'd be. Lord knows you don't need more disappointment in your life. I would imagine John's gotten a little better at playing but he's probably still playing only the most basic bass lines. How the hell is he gonna play Dead or Alive?

Manny's likely found a long term girlfriend by now, what with him being so attractive. The bastard got all the good genes of the family and left John and I to rot! The fuck!

I wonder if you've got a girlfriend. It's certainly possible but only if you've decided to take life by the balls. Getting your license, getting a job, putting shit to rest. I HOPE, sincerely, that you've done those things at least. I also sincerely hope that you've swept some cute, intelligent, funny girl off her feet and that she really appreciates you the way you deserve. If nothing's happened - don't worry man. You've been through this type of shit before. Remember the drought before Emily came along? And remember how amazing that ended up being..for a while?

Speaking of which..yeah. You know. Emily. I hope you're past it by now. At this point in time I still think of her a lot. A lot a lot. Fortunately her songs have stopped playing so much but it doesn't help. Even when you see her on MySpace you get torn up. You wish you could just say "hey, you look incredible," but her douchebag boyfriend told you off. Surely you remember. And yes, it's hilarious, but still..you'd like to at least be able to speak to her. Did you ever send her that CD she wanted? At this time you were contemplating doing it just as a final "hey, we never worked out but I wish we did," sort of present. It's doubtful though. Maybe she's single by now. Maybe you're talking to her right now! But being realistic and to quote Boys Night Out "right now..things aren't looking good."

Speaking of music - right now you're really getting into Stars because of listening to it on the ride home from Warped with Holly. "When there is nothing left to burn you have to set yourself on fire." Otherwise it's the norm - Format, the GHII playlist, the latest Rooney CD, etc. Powerpop for life of course! I hope you've seen The Rocket Summer. God, they were amazing at the Warped Tour. He didn't even skip a beat when he dodged a fucking water bottle thrown at him! Hardcore skills to say the least.

So I guess in the end what this letter is saying is this - I hope you've gotten a job, a license, and at least something tangible in the relationship area. And I really truly hope you've gotten complete closure on the Emily situation because..God, speaking for now, this hurts like hell. Everything seemed so perfect and then things just fell apart. It's such a shame..she was..she IS..so perfect. But this just wasn't meant to be, I guess. You can't lose faith. Even if you're not over it by the time you read this - don't worry. It's tough but you've been through worse. Remember Carly? Still..Emily was something special. Hopefully you've found somebody by now that's made your heart skip a few beats. I only wish the best for you my man.

Oh, and when you get this - be sure to give all those friends your regards. They've stuck by you and they so deserve some recognition for it. I hope by now they're all as happy as they should be..especially Jess. She's still really special to you right? Not like a girlfriend type of special but..an amazing person kind of special. Let her know that when you read this.

Rate this letter: rate this letter   huh?

What the heck is this now?
here's the story:
two fellas started this here site so that you could write yourself a letter to be delivered at a later date. we've all had to do them in high school and college. it's sorta cool to receive a letter from yourself about where you thought you'd be a year (two years? more?) later. FutureMe.org is based on the principle that memories are less accurate than emails. we strive for accuracy.
But what if i don't have the same e-mail address in the future?
a possibility for sure. we recommend using an address with some potential for longevity (hotmail, yahoo, your own domain). in addition, we created an account management system so that you can change the addresses of your future letters. (though that's kind of cheating.)

also, the letter will be delivered from the email address: mailer (then the at sign) futureme.org. so you may want to tell your spam guard to allow mails from that address.
What's the deal with "public, but anonymous"?
so this our little twist. if you designate your e-mail as "public, but anonymous" (about 15% at this point), it will be included in the public letters section.

your email address will not be shown, but both the body and the subject of the letter will be shown in its entirety. if you want to really know the nuts and bolts, please read our notice regarding legal & privacy issues.
Can I write FutureMe e-mails to other people?
as of FutureMe 2.0 (spring 2007) you can indeed write to others, but only if you are a registered user. when they get the email, it will include that it was sent from your e-mail address. this policy is a bit strict perhaps, but unfortunately there are Internet hooligans out there that would abuse FutureMe otherwise.
Is this all a front by some corporation to collect e-mail addresses for spamming purposes?
no, your email address is kept strictly confidential and will ONLY be used for the purpose of you sending an email to your future self. so relax. and maybe remind your future self to relax as well.
Wow! What a cool idea -- is futureme famous?
well yeah, actually, FutureMe is kinda famous. it all started with being a webmonkey monkey bite, back in august 2003. then we were a yahoo! site of the day a month later. in 2004, FutureMe was selected to be exhibited at ars electronica in austria, the largest musuem of digital art in the world. in 2005, the associated press released a story featuring FutureMe that was picked up by hundreds of publications, including wired, salon the boston globe, cnn the san francisco chronicle, the washington post and the sydney morning herald to name just a few. matt and jay each spent a few days doing interviews while they should have been holiday shopping. then, in late spring 2007, we had another round of publicity, as a feature story in the LA Times Magazine, and on NPR's Weekend Edition. a few more media opportunities are in the works, so stay tuned! (get it? tuned? heh heh)

but we mostly owe our popularity to hundreds of 'blog posts throughout the years -- so thanks 'bloggers.

of course...the success of FutureMe has also spawned some cheap imitations.
I'm glad you're famous...but i did one of these a while back, and it never came. What gives!
the most common delivery problems are: 1) a mistyped e-mail addres 2) bounce (i.e. the e-mail doesn't exist anymore, mailbox is full, etc...) 3) getting unduly snagged by a spam filter 4) futureme.org not being on your "whitelist." if you are a registered user, you will soon be able to request a "resend."
Who are these above-mentioned fellas?
matt sly does all things back-end.   (mattsly.com)
jay patrikios does all things front-end.   (patrikios.org)
How can i make a cash payment to said fellas for providing such a nifty service?
we're glad you asked. we've set up a paypal account for you to do just that. see, if you donate a tiny amount of money, we spend less of our money. FutureMe is a free service and will remain so, but it does cost us a bit of cash to maintain the site and ensure proper delivery of your so-very-precious future letters.
What if i'd rather give presents?
another good question. the fellas have wish lists:
matt's wish list | jay's wish list.

take care.
matt and jay

《抽水马桶的秘密》内容简介:
地球哺乳界正在发生的一次大规模跨物种升级,DNA机制并非人们所想像的那样是决定生命的最终遗传载体,而是类似浏览器这样的转译机制,真正的遗传物质存储在弥漫整个宇宙的光子数据库中,DNA机制实际上是一种设定了进化路径的文明压缩包的解压机制,数十亿年前灭绝的三栖人发明了光子数据库和DNA机制,目的是为了让这个机制最终复活三栖人文明,而人类(裸猿)这一物种在三栖人社会里其实是一种宠物,但是DNA机制似乎出现了点问题,或者说不知道什么原因裸猿突然变得太过聪明了,在播撒了始祖菌(DNA种子)的所有星球,进化路径发展到裸猿阶段,并没有继续演化出最后一步:三栖人,而强大的光子数据库一旦意识到DNA进化机制的这个漏洞,立刻关闭了这些星球对光子数据库的访问权限,这样,这些星球的生态系统都面临着灭绝的危险,因为他们脱离了光子数据库的遗传支持再也无法自然繁殖,只能靠遗传工程来复制现有的基因,或者做些小打小闹的修改,整个宇宙各星球上的基于DNA机制的生态系统都面临崩溃的危险。最终在13世纪,裸猿一族在银河边缘一个不起眼的小星系发现了地球这个由于某种原因至今还刚进化到裸猿初级阶段的星球,为了催熟地球的进化速度,外星裸猿文明开始介入地球的发展,为了防止光子数据库察觉到非地球文明的介入并关闭地球的权限,这种介入始终是暗中进行,因为介入方式的分歧,银河系裸猿文明分裂为两大集团,这两大集团的争斗伴随着人类近现代的发展,于是,文艺复兴开始了、三次科技革命出现了、两次世界大战也来了,直到今天,地球人类为自己的技术进步而沾沾自喜,丝毫不知道技术迅速发展的真正原因以及潜藏的危机。
