I've now finished the tablet & mobile versions of that year browser, so it's fully responsive:

https://www.pasttimeline.net/timeline.htm

So now I can focus on "Browse by period".

Quick question, Will. When you reach the present year, will the timeline stop there, or will it continue to "self extend" at a rate of one year per year?

It'll self extend, so the end of Past Timeline will link to the beginning of Future Timeline (and vice versa). Old years on Future Timeline will be deleted and moved to Past Timeline.

Ah, so then Future Timeline will start in the 2020s? Is that what you mean?

Not since November, but yeah.

Believe me, I wish I could work on it every day! :) But I have a regular 9-5 job, which is exhausting, and Future Timeline which I need to update regularly in order to sustain traffic/revenue. So, I rarely get time to work on Past Timeline.

Plus, there's now a 3rd website I'm working on (future-related), which is kind of under wraps for now, but could enable me to transition into writing and blogging full-time, by generating 10 times the revenue of Future Timeline (if it works out, which I'm fairly confident it will).

I will continue to work on Past Timeline every few months, and my interest and passion for the website hasn't diminished one iota... but it's going to be a long haul, I'm afraid.

It's really great to hear that your passion might become your job.

An unfinished Past Timeline looks like a procrastinator's problem: Past Timeline and Procrastination.

Even though on-hold, i was wondering how you are getting on with Pasttimeline Will?

As mentioned before, I've been working on a (secret) 3rd website, which is future-related and could generate much more revenue. I'm keeping it secret until launch, because it's a genuine business idea that I don't want anybody stealing. By coincidence, I happened to finish the main homepage layout yesterday. So, I have a bit more time available now and could possibly get Past Timeline moving again. I will have another look at the timeline and see what needs doing next. Cheers.

Guess i missed that bit but can't wait to see what's in-store in the future.

Huge progress on this lately. Another major template finished today.

If I can use this as my main source of income, I could work on all three websites full time! (my eventual goal)

I'm doing some minor work on the timeline template this evening/weekend. Might simplify the menus/navigation a bit, to save time. So maybe I can start adding content first, to get the ball rolling, and then go back to improving the navigation later. I think that would be preferable to waiting years and years to even get started on the timeline.
