We’re all still hopelessly in love with the fancy flip-through interface that started on iTunes and now lives on through the iPhone. Why? Well it just feels so intuitive doesn’t it? Hell, it’s as if we’re not even using technology at all, more flicking through the vintage jazz section at a tucked-away record store trying to find a hidden gem. Of course, this interface has spawned a whole array of pretenders but one that looks like it might have some mileage is Kronomy.

Xakasha launched late last year as a 3D timeline creation tool for chronicling your life–or anyone else’s life or series of events for that matter. Recently renamed Kronomy, it now dips into multiple social media sources in order to build a given timeline. What’s really interesting, if it takes off, is how it lays the foundations of an all singing, all visual CV, drawn from a variety of personal and professional sources, offering revolutionary insights into an individuals life. The tool could arguably be used to support the timeline of an organisation too, showing in purely visual terms, it’s essence and agenda as it grows and develops.

Kronomy is currently private beta but you can investigate it further by using this invite code: explorekronomy. Well worth a look.
