When a major milestone occurs either in day to day life or according to the calendar, creating a time capsule is a good way to remember the event. How many traditional time capsules were buried in the year 2000? Or when a town celebrates 100 years of existence-or more? What about high school graduating classes that bury their memories for future generations to unearth. Today there's no need to bury physical objects when online photo galleries can be created to do the same thing.
Instead of relying on physical objects photographs of important items need to be gathered. This can be done through a web search or by actually photographing the desired objects. Include a good variety of items. What was popular in music? Clothing? What did your city look like? What were people doing for work and for fun? What were some favorite foods? You may want to include recipes too. Think of what people 50 years ago would have eaten, chances are it has changed today. People in the future may want to try making your favorite foods! Don't forget to include highlights of items in the news both Iocal, national, and international.
You don't have to stop at images. You can also include video. Maybe a short tour of the local schools, parks, or hot spots would be interesting. Interview some prominent people in your community as well as the everyday “man on the street” to get their perspective. Have questions prepared ahead of time so that you are able to of get an interesting sample of similar questions. You're only limited by your imagination! When everything has been collected assemble it in your web photo album. Leave directions with your local library or somewhere that it will be remembered and checked on regularly. Over the years updates may need to be made to save the information.
