Fascinating.

very interesing - i also like the simple interface. i'm not entirely convinced by the three-line summaries. sure, they give a rough indication of what happened.....but i'd love them to link to something like wikipedia for those of us who may want to delve deeper. (yes, i know i can do that manually....but i'm lazy and want the internet to spoon-feed me information! :lol
on a different note: did anyone else find the mouse counterintuitive? i keep wanting to treat it like a pdf or something. instead, when i drag my mouse down the image moves up. aaagh, my poor little brain can't cope!

Requires Adobe Shockwave to view. Very impressive presentation - Geography and timelime.

Interesting the lack of wars in America. I bet we had are hands in most of the wars displayed.
