If I did it right, this post should appear here about 6 hours after casting. Hello, future!

The same can be done with a time-delayed spell far more easily, if you've done what I believe you've done.

Hello from the present; it looks like the spell worked. In other news, all the clocks in my house now tick backwards. Should I call a clocksmith or do something else?

Maybe figure out a way to tell current time off of them?

Instant souvenirs for your trip into the time vortex.
Did you meet your future self or were you using a different kind of spell?

This one was for "sending messages to the future"; apparently it works on computers just fine. I don't think it's very useful, as you could just get that message delivered in a more conventional way, but it seemed easy and harmless enough for a first time test. I didn't get into any time vortex just yet, that seems a bit...risky.

P.S. Typing on a keyboard with a meter-long cane with a tip larger than the keys is hard, especially when it's surging with temporal energy.

The time vortex is actually better then it sounds.
Sometimes I feel names for things like that can be really over-dramatic. The worst example I ever heard was "Hitler's Deadly Brainsphere". It is literally where Hitler stored his spare brains. Not for use in mechs or anything, it was just... brains he wasn't using. He didn't even call it the Brainsphere or anything. It was literally a freezer in a Berlin university.
