Our future self has desires, ambitions, and big plans for us. Now it also has an app.

Have you ever looked back and wished you could tell your 16-year old self some sage piece of advice? I have. But what about your future self?  I just love the new app Incubate. It’s a time capsule app that allows a user to message their future self. Or someone else’s future self.

Here’s how it works: Say for instance you are expecting a baby. Incubate allows parents to create time capsules for the child’s first important rites of passage—birthdays, graduation, and into adulthood.  The “Incubate My Wedding” is a huge hit with parents and friends sending notes of advice and well wishes to the future couple.

Your future self has desires. Now it has an app.
