This is looking very beta. UI is on the mediocre side. I would have pointed to CircaVie as an interesting alternative, but they were shut down (Yahoo owned?) several months ago (without a long-enough warning for users I might add - GRRRR!). xTimeline.com is another intersting implementation.

I created a Timetoast timeline last week chronicling the history of an issue going to referendum in Madison, WI. I ended up using xTimeline for the final product though. Timetoast makes users input dates in day/month/year, with no options for month/year or just year. So events that had no specific date are forced into a date that's not necessarily accurate.
Also, if many of your events happen around the same time, the points on the line begin to overlap and there's no option for zooming in or out or having a flipbook-type presentation as you can on Dipity.

The date boxes are a bit clunky, but I like the expandable/collapsable timeline. Would be very handy for a densely populated timeline.

Hi everyone, hope you like Timetoast! I'm going to be adding some cool stuff over the next couple of months but Timetoast is still a one man show, so bear with me!

Nice work on Timetoast. There are a bunch of good timeline offerings, depending on what you are trying to accomplish. Dipity, allofme, lifeblob and our offering, LifeSnapz are all worthwhile to check out.
