There's no reason you cannot use a CSV or other simple format for your Timeline data. The Timeline api comes with support for three different formats, JSON, XML and SPARQL.

Alternately, it is easy to write a script to translate into JSON or XML.
Let me know if you need an example. --Mike On Jun 1, 2011, at 8:18 PM, Dan wrote: > I've been using the timeline_local example w/o problems other than > it's kind of tedious using a text editor.
