Thanks for the recommendation. Exhibit seems interesting but also seems to have a steeper learning curve compared to Timeline.
During the end of last year, another idea that I had with Timeline was to place blog posts on the timeline. If For frequent bloggers, I though that was a good way to visualise events throughout the year or your life. I implemented a php script which uses MetaWeblog API, so any compatible blog can be formated as Timeline XML and be viewed on the Timeline.
