Neat! Can you describe the architecture a little? Are you
automatically generating timeline xml data from the wiki pages? On
demand or some out-of-band process?
I notice you're loading timeline from static.simile.mit.edu . Probably a
bad idea as that machine is not carefully maintained. I recommend
switching to simile-widgets.org

We are at:

We are putting this beta website up for testing and general reactions.
Our goal was to make all history in Wikipedia available on timelines.
All the information initially placed on the timelines is extracted
from information in the Wikipedia articles themselves. It is basically
a paragraph, sentence and date parser and disambiguation system.
Our next goal is to get users involved to help incrementally
edit/adjust the timelines and help to improve the website in general.
Next month we will be releasing a website widget, that will allow any
webmaster to place a fully configurable timeline on any website, that
will display a timeline derived from the content of the website it is
placed on.
The widget, when placed on the web page will look like this:
<script src="http://wikitimelines.net/H/P/HP40C1A2X.js";
type="text/javascript"></script>
<div id="HP40C1A2X"></div>
The timeline, of the website, will automatically appear, in the
browser, where the above widget (<div> tag) is placed.
Thanks
