What is the digital representations of my digital footprint? How can I see it? A time line? An object graph? Both. What does this look like. Well to start, the depth of its container is important, the timeline can wind its way around the dates but the objects can still remain connected. So the timeline needs to be defined as the order in which things happened. At first I will need a canvas that can look at all the dates an event occurred and draw its line. The object graph viewer (might need more than a browser can give) will need to scale, rotate and move nodes around while keeping everything connected. Svg might help here. The two will need to superimpose with each other where the dates attach to the objects. The ability to switch object attributes on should feel layered.
