Time Capsules: Tools for writing the human story

Long before digital tools, people created traditional time capsules to store time capsule contents in a sealed stainless-steel container or an inert gas-filled iron container. These classic time capsules held items—newspapers, letters, drawings, and artifacts—all meant to preserve a slice of everyday life for future generations and historians to discover. They were true time capsule example vessels of their era. Often, communities had to plan an exact opening date decades in advance. The idea of a time capsule came about for the preservation of the human story.

One of the world’s most famous time capsules, the Voyager Golden Record, launched into space. Meanwhile, the Westinghouse time capsule rested underground. Each carried pieces of the human story intended for the distant future. Besides the most well-known time capsules, there are other very cool uses of time capsules. Buried at school graduations, sealed before weddings, or placed at centennial celebrations, time capsules are a celebration of our history. Any memory can be stored to mark an important event.

The digital time capsule’s emergence

In today’s digital age, a new digital time capsule concept changed everything. Instead of burying a stainless-steel container, people could make a digital time capsule on their laptop, computer, or mobile devices. They’d upload photos, back up digital copies of physical documents, and save the files in special time capsule folders. These digital time capsules might have been just a folder on your hard drive. In the case of these ‘homemade’ digital time capsules, stored on personal devices, things can go wrong. For example, the computer breaks down and the files go missing; the photos and videos may never be viewed again.

Even old social media posts are nowadays a sort of time capsule of 2000s culture. More or less everybody now has a social media time capsule.

Soon digital time capsule websites appeared, letting you store a time capsule online. These time capsule files often lacked the original items that made them special. Since those digital vaults lived on a single online platform, they easily got lost or forgotten. Scattered time capsule files ended up in random folders on an online platform, or trapped in the internet archive, inaccessible without the correct link or email. People lost precious data and personal information. 

That is exactly why FuturePosts exists. We embrace the power of the digital format but hand-deliver your photos as real postcards. You don’t have to collect items or scan documents. Instead, simply pick your best memories, upload photos from your smartphone or computer, and set a future date. We print your design, store it safely, and deliver it to your door right on your future date.

This is the best souvenir you can give your loved ones, or imagine the smile your future version feels opening it. More than postcards, personal mementos that stand as your own time capsule.

Because everything is handled for you, there are no forgotten time capsule contents, no lost digital time capsule files, and no worries about crafting a secondary project. It’s a heartwarming surprise that arrives exactly when you planned.

In a world where so many services promise to preserve the past—some touting themselves as a simple time capsule online site—only FuturePosts offers a postcard you can hold. You never worry about losing videos or misplaced items. Your story remains intact, free of technical glitches or missing files.

Imagine sending a postcard today with your favorite family photo. Ten years later, it arrives—delivering joy to your loved ones, your community, or maybe your kids reading it in college. Holding that postcard sparks a memory you hadn’t felt in years. That’s the power of a physical keepsake.

It’s like a fun game to see who receives the biggest grin. And for users of all ages, this simple act turns the idea of a time capsule into reality. No stress, no dead link, no lost digital clutter.
