[ddj] Interactive timeline tools

Thu Aug 1 20:38:42 UTC 2013

Hi!
I'm pretty new to this list, so hello!

Recently I wrote a vertical javascript timeline tool that takes data from a
published google spreadsheet. It should be pretty easy to use, and can be
styled to your own site with CSS.

You can find an example here: http://timeline.faridrener.com/
The code is at github, here:
https://github.com/proteusvacuum/newsie-timeline

If you need any help with it, let me know.

Best,

Farid Rener
