Hi HN,

When browsing wikipedia, sometimes I find myself asking the question, "when this was happening, what else happened around the same time/location?" After debating whether this was actually useful and researching how it could be implemented, I finally set out to build this tool that allows you to browse and search (almost) all dated events on en.wikipedia. Given an event, it also shows you what was happening closeby, in spacetime.

I don't know how people will use it. I don't even know if anyone will find this useful. But I enjoyed building it.

wow, really nice IMO. I'd be interested in seeing the spider and crawlers to do this, as it's something similar to other project I want to do.

I think this is pretty cool! One suggestion is making it easier to search by date. I was able to figure it out by clicking a link but if it was possible to select from a calendar or type in a date and get all events that would make it more friendly :3

Very cool! Do you plan to open source it? I'm curious what it looks like :)

Great job'
