jMinder 1.0

I've had a little pet project for the last few days. It was inspired by the needs of 2 people. First, in the past E has talked about having some sort of system that automatically reminds him of events that he preprograms. Now, my system tries to fulfill this need, but does so only by sending emails. I think E would prefer a system that sends him a phone call or text message or something like that...which was a bit out of my scope.

My other inspiration was S, who often talks of a high school teacher of his who made the students write letters to themselves at the end of the school year. The teacher then sent out the letter 5 years later for the students to read. I've done this before as well, and it's an awesome feeling to read your 'former self'...

So, without further ado, I present jMinder. You write a message and put your email address and a date to be sent, then on that date that email address will get the message. Cool huh? Write your future self a letter, it'll be fun (just don't change your email address!). Try it out...
