Wandora's timeline service module is used to visualize RSS and Twitter extractions. Timeline service module is based on Simile Timeline project. Wandora transforms extracted topics and association into Simile Timeline JSON format and passes created data structure to Timeline Javascript library. Timeline service module's alias is timeline. Using timeline requires Wandora's embedded HTTP server is started and timeline module is activated. Timeline's URL is 

http://127.0.0.1:8989/timeline

Timeline service module demonstrates how to build an HTML and Javascript visualization that uses Wandora's topic map API. It is a known issue that many other Wandora extractors would also work nicely with timeline. We welcome extensions to the timeline service module.

Example

In this example Wandora user performs a Twitter extraction using hashtag #topicmaps. Then user performs an RSS extraction from xxx. Finally Wandora user starts Wandora's embedded server and opens timeline service module.
