Quit Digging and get back to work.
Sincerely,
Past Self. - tizz66, on 11/04/2007, -1/+56Dear Digg,
Look, it's been over 100 years already. Please fix your comment and session system, and while you're at it, add that damn picture section. I'm dead now, but my kids will thank you.
-tizz66 - ChromaVita, on 11/04/2007, -1/+55It's going to be hilarious when there is a glitch, and all of the messages are sent in a month instead.
- DorothyLaudie, on 10/25/2007, -1/+41Will we need e-mail in 100 years?
- carbonfree314, on 10/24/2007, -0/+40Dear Dwight,
At 8 A.M. someone poisons the coffee.
Do NOT drink the coffee. More instructions will follow.
Cordially, Future Dwight. - ElecBoy, on 10/25/2007, -5/+37Sure, Freeze My mail for 100Years but can you freeze your Domain Expiration?

It Expires 07-Sep-2008 I think he should change the title to "Freeze your email message for up to 1 year" until he renew his domain at least for 99 years.
- GreatSunJester, on 11/04/2007, -0/+27Dear Mr. Zap Lightstar the 5th, 100 years ago we successfully froze the assets of Mr. Umgiwat, the former prime minister of Nigeria........ we need YOUR help to recover this money and it's 100 years of accrued interest.
- LordSnooze, on 11/04/2007, -3/+28Your emails are frozen, but meanwhile, here's some spam!
- moosepile, on 11/04/2007, -1/+23Chaps, listen up. I have here this thing called a Tin Foil Phonograph. For only a few quid, I'll record your voices, then at the turn of the 21st century, blokes will be able to listen to you!
- bollander, on 11/04/2007, -0/+19And when your e-mail never gets delivered in 100 years, you won't be around to complain about it.
- sockpuppets, on 11/04/2007, -0/+18Honey I cheated on you all those years. I'm sorry.
- Cwo655321, on 11/04/2007, -1/+18I'm pretty sure your hand heard that.
- inactive, on 11/04/2007, -0/+16I think you can only register 10 or so years in advance, but I agree. Why would somebody keep this running for so long at zero revenue? The bare minimum cost would be $900 for just the stupid domain, I don't even want to think about hosting.
Maybe they're just harvesting emails. - bizsumpark182, on 11/04/2007, -1/+16Hmmm...there is a major flaw. Most people like to change their email every so many years.
- martnet, on 11/04/2007, -2/+17cool service. several messages to my "best" boss were frozen ;)
- KMye, on 11/04/2007, -0/+14He'll still be running it 100 years from now...
- darkNiGHTS, on 11/04/2007, -1/+14But will this site be around in 100 years?
- imightbewrong, on 10/24/2007, -1/+14100 years ago they were saying send yourself a telegraph in 40 years
- whitlock, on 10/24/2007, -0/+12I actually used a similar service a couple years ago. I told myself that I had to make some changes with my life and if I was still going down that path, I would have let myself down. It was creepy to get the message one day at work.
That caused me to think...a lot. - sifiblog, on 11/04/2007, -0/+9Unfortunately, Their server might be down in 5 years, or your email address will be made obsolete/deleted by the company that gave it to you.
- AriaStar, on 11/04/2007, -2/+10If all us unfrozen and lost in 99 years, who can I sue?
- inactive, on 11/04/2007, -0/+8This doesn't work. I already tried it a hundred years ago.
- teamparadox, on 11/04/2007, -1/+9He's the Highlander!
- ElecBoy, on 11/04/2007, -0/+7Yeah I didn't remember the limit I thought it was like 12 years in advance to register. So the service is good for fun but don't expect to get and email in the next 5 years probably the service will be long gone.
- LordSnooze, on 10/24/2007, -3/+10You now have a lifetime subscription to "Enlarge Your Confidence".
- esumner, on 11/04/2007, -0/+5I remember a story by Ray Bradbury, dont know what it was called but the main character ended up sending himself mad by recieving prank phone calls from himself from the past. Anyone know what story I mean?
- allaboutdatiki, on 10/23/2007, -0/+5Is Ted Williams' head in there?
- lowpartscom, on 10/24/2007, -0/+5Wow, after this testimonial, they'll have TONS of frozen emails:
I had been looking through a suitcase of my late grandmother and found sealed envelope in which there was a letter of ten years prescription.
She made all her noises regarding our family. What beautiful words there were! I'll never forget them! - nesibus, on 10/24/2007, -1/+6"Receive spam for 100 years after entering your email."
- SiNN4R, on 10/24/2007, -0/+5My prostate is the size of a 1964 Plymouth Belvedere.
- kuzotz, on 11/04/2007, -0/+5There can be only one!!!
- gamebittk, on 10/25/2007, -0/+5We all get his his point, except, of course, you.
- wmtrader, on 10/24/2007, -1/+5This is just a way of getting your email address so he can sell it to spamers.
- adooga, on 10/24/2007, -0/+4Who has the same email address for 10 years?
- hiPpymIck, on 10/24/2007, -4/+8from the about section..
1. I guarantee confidentiality - nobody will read your messages except your addressee.
2. All messages will be sent punctually in time. It is made automatically.
3. I promise to support the site all the time.
Dunkan McLaud.
..where have i heard that name before - zachshmack, on 10/24/2007, -0/+4But what if I don't still have my bonerz69lol@yahoo.com in 10 years?
- JoshLeafe, on 10/24/2007, -0/+4I have had mine for 20 years, oh wait, Google itself wasn't even around 8 years ago..
- liquisoft, on 11/04/2007, -0/+4Assuming my friends and family will have the exact same email addresses in 5 years as they do now is preposterous. Still, it's a neat idea.
- vclortho, on 10/24/2007, -0/+3Email won't even exist in 100 years, this is a waste of time.
- supremespleen, on 11/04/2007, -1/+4Oh man, I remember that one. It was fantastic.
Bradbury is amazing. - MageLordy, on 10/24/2007, -0/+3that wasn't a testimonial, that was a description :p
- Otto, on 11/04/2007, -0/+3The name of the story is "Night Call, Collect". It was one of the Martian Chronicles, but can also be found in "I Sing the Body Electric!" It was about the last man alive, after the end of humanity. He's on Mars, which is colonized at this time, but everybody else has died/left.
- JoshLeafe, on 10/23/2007, -0/+2Then put it in your allow list in advance. :)
- dtele, on 10/24/2007, -0/+2I would suspect that they're harvesting emails - the domain is not registered for that long.
- juliolarri, on 10/24/2007, -0/+2I really doubt it, unless your comment it´s from the future.
But I see the point. - Otto, on 10/24/2007, -0/+2Will we have the same email addresses in 100 years? I mean, I will, because I'm immortal and I bought my own domain, but all you mortal beings might have issues...
- freezerburn819, on 10/24/2007, -0/+2great idea. i'm going to do the same thing
- kuzotz, on 10/24/2007, -0/+2awesome. I'm 19 right now. So yea.. There is a high chance I'll be around in 2107.
- SpykerSpeed, on 10/24/2007, -0/+2Actually... you might. Considering medical and technological advancements.
- inactive, on 10/24/2007, -0/+1He can just renew it, more to the point you don't need a domain name in order to actually send an email, although I doubt email will still be around then and even if it is I doubt the server and its messages will survive.
