Hi all:
If you are thinking of using a timeline in your presentation, check out http://www.dipity.com/
You can create something like this:
Note that videos, images, locations, and links can be embedded in the timeline.
Unfortunately, Dipity doesn’t have a print function yet, but you can take a screen shot of the timeline and include it in your poster.
From Dipity’s Q &A:
The best way to print a timeline currently is to use screenshots of your timeline. You can edit the screen shots to the right size in order to create a hard copy of your Dipity timeline.
To take screen shots on Mac:
Command-Shift-3: Take a screenshot of the screen, and save it as a file on the desktop
Command-Shift-4, then select an area: Take a screenshot of an area and save it as a file on the desktop
Command-Shift-4, then space, then click a window: Take a screenshot of a window and save it as a file on the desktop
PC
Hit the “Print Screen” button
Open any image software.
Hit paste
Voila!
