This is pretty neat: AOL has launched circaVie, an effortlessly simple (and well-designed) way to share timelines. The site provides a tool for creating Flash-based timelines: add photos, captions, text and links for all kinds of events.
Others can then view your timeline, scroll through it, skip to a certain date, search across all timelines, browse tags, embed timelines on other sites like MySpace (or AIMpages) and subscribe to a feed of that timeline. It is, in a word, neat. Someone needed to do timelines right, and I think they have. The next question is whether they can actually get the user base to sustain this thing.
