Simile Timeline, an AJAX widget for visualising time-based events »

Simile Timeline is an interactive widget for arbitrary timelines. It implements a data visualisation that is something like what Edward Tufte mocked up as an alternative to Gantt charts for project timelines.

It gives two views: a zoomed in view of the detail, and a zoomed out view to give context. Looks great.

Lifehacker has a good example of it being used to record a personal timeline — a CV of sorts.

(That I was talking about in my last post.)

Thanks to Bowen Dwelle for the pointer.
