There’s a project I’ve been working on, off and on for the last year, and it’s finally ready to see the light of day. Behold ChronoDrome, a website with a single purpose: to let people upload timelines, reading orders, viewing orders, and so on, as well as letting readers track their progress through those timelines. Is there a series you love but beginners find impossibly complex to navigate? This is the site for you.
I was inspired in particular by the old Web 1.0 sites I used to visit as a kid (like this one!) and I wanted to recapture the simplicity of those old web pages while still letting people post stuff. I wanted people to be able to create full featured timelines without making their own sites or just posting big blocks of text on Reddit, all while keeping a tight focus on what readers actually want to see.
For a good example of what this site can do, check out this timeline I’ve made for the works of ancient Greek history. Hopefully it’s a good balance between simple and flexible (and interesting in its own right).
Anyway, check it out! There are a fewothertimelinesalready posted, and hopefully more will go up in the coming months. The first part of the Roman history timeline is almost ready to go. Make an account, make some timelines of your own, or just start a new reading project. (The site is definitely better with an account, both for creators and for regular users. I find it very satisfying to watch timelines fill up with more and more entries marked as finished.) And let me know if you encounter any bugs or problems please. :)
