New interactive time-lining site is up for a test today:
www.tents-to-rvs.info
Of course we are doing this, for the first time, for FreeRepublic members and lurkers, because they are the smartest people in the whole world.
Now we don't have just facts and figures to fight the liberals, we can actually show them history.
Enjoy, and see if you can break it in the next few hours.
Thanks Jeff

La Lydia is right. It’s too hard to navigate.

I thought of a concept to illustrate history using Wikipeadia and social networking. Looks like you implemented part of it already.

Yes, and it took being unemployed for a year to pull it off.
Nobody will give me a job, because apparently I don’t have any marketable skills. lol
I actually wrote this in various hotel business centers across the country, while sleeping in my car in Wal-Mart parking lots.
What a country we live in!

Yes that works, but it is still very difficult to read, and in no way a “time line.” For instance, on the “time line,” 1976 appears before 1969. Now, I am as open to new ways of doing things as anyone else, but time, in this context, can’t be marching backward. This appears to have been designed by someone who is very cleaver about website setup but who has no grasp of history. Time is a construct, I know, but this is pushing it. Sorry.

He’s fixing it while we try to access it, so there are going to be times he’s editing or writing code and the site won’t be available for awhile.

Well, it has gotten 600 hits in the last hour.
You are seeing something that has never been seen before.
on the “time line,” 1976 appears before 1969.
Could you tell me which time-line that happened on.
You know, it isn't perfect. And it has only been up for an hour or so.

This is very cool. As a student of history, I love it; it gives me a kind of three-dimensional view of events.
