Dipity.com - Timelines Of Your Life

Dipity, short for serendipity, is a timeline making app. You can make up a timeline of anything, from your favorite band shows, to the decline of the American economy. To start out, you do have to register which takes a matter of seconds. Follow that by hitting the ‘Create Event’ button and you are set. A whole slough of different types of media—Google maps, links, photos, videos, feeds, etc—can be pulled in to make your timeline dazzle, and once it’s complete, your timeline is embeddable on your own site or profile. You can easily focus in on each element for more info, and you can even zoom out on a whole time period. Furthermore, Dipity supports profile feeds from Twitter, Yelp, and Flickr, among others, which means you can create a lifestream.

“Dipity is the easiest way to make and share interactive timelines about the people and things you care about.”

Dipity allows users to create interactive and in depth timelines, unlike any other. These aren’t your normal, static timelines with little media interaction. They can be used to for developing a media lifestream where your friends can keep tabs on what you’re up to. Dipity is pretty simple to use, and it’s has an elegant presentation.

The timeline making category is getting more and more crowded. Just how does Dipity plan to stand out among the rest? The site could use a more detailed explanation of how to add elements.
