Dipity Timeline

// May 13th, 2008 // Web

There’s a new web service called dipity that creates timelines of your events. You can see a quick timeline I created below using the services (blog, Flickr, Yelp, etc) that I commonly use. It’s a nice visual way to see what someone has been doing. It offers Twitter integration as well, but I found that it cluttered up the timeline.

I think it has potential, but there are other things I’d like for it to do.

For instance, I think it would make a great “Archive” page for your blog. However, it only imports blog posts via RSS feed. Meaning it will show the most recent posts only. I tried to create a custom RSS page and use that, but it would bomb out at more than 20 results.

So go try dipity and see what you think. I’ll keep watching to see if you can import older content.
