Today - 40 Years Ago: New Retrospect Feature on time-o-rama.com

Online, May 25, 2010 (Newswire.com) - Berlin, May 23, 2010. On their personal homepages, users of the online biography site time-o-rama can now hear, see and read what they and their social network experienced one, two, three or even a hundred years ago. Time-o-rama makes it possible to visualize the years that passed us by so quickly.

Didn't Jane visit Berlin at this time last year? Didn't we pack our bags for the trip to South Africa five years ago? And didn't dad celebrate his Bar Mitzvah 40 years ago? The trip into your own past and that of your friends refreshes memories and provides hours of great entertainment.

The retrospect feature is completely customizable. Users can adjust the number of years they want to go back and whether the time jump should only include their own events, only their friends or both. Users can also see what happened just before and just after the respective date: plus/minus a day or even up to a month.

Of course, time-o-rama can only show events that were entered into the database. Most active users record what happens to them today, thus affording an interesting retrospect in the future. However, it is also possible to add past experiences now, such as the first day of school or the first vacation. In time-o-rama every event is allocated to a date and an address. You can link your own experiences to photos, sounds or documents uploaded by yourself or other members.

This type of networking opens a new window into history. Links provided by many users describe events in a specific place at a specific time. An interactive timeline allows scrolling through the history of a place.

This distinguishes time-o-rama from other social networks, which only operate in the present.
Time-o-rama is useful and closer to reality. Whether your kids will be able to read up on their parents' lives or whether you enjoy exploring the past yourself - the new retrospect feature brings time-o-rama one step closer to its goal of providing a panorama of time. Membership is free and without obligation. All uploaded data remain the property of the members.
