Timelines in OmniGraffle

Earlier this week, I needed to create timeline graphics for my What's new in AppFuse 2.0 presentation. I found a Timeline script for OmniGraffle and was able to create some pretty nifty images with it. Below are the two timelines I created, one for the History of AppFuse and one for The Future.

History of AppFuse

The Future of AppFuse

I'll be delivering this presentation at our seminar later this afternoon. With free knowledge and a complementary happy hour afterwards, why would you miss it? ;-)

It looks like Denver weather will make it interesting for attendees to get downtown. Hopefully most folks will take the light rail in. That's my plan.

Thanks for posting that OG script, I've been looking for ways to use that tool more.

Thanks for posting that OG script... I wrote it! I like what you did with it. I wasn't sure if it was too bare bones, but I'm glad that you're using it as I intended, as a means-to-an-end, rather than a click, and you're done.

It is a fine timeline and all, but it appears to be missing an entry for Dec 1-2, 2006 for DU getting swept by Colorado College. That's right.

my timeline at one of the italian javaday events had even more colours, but unfortunately no scripts here, just a lot of work linking gradient-filled boxes ;) here's the result: http://www.flickr.com/photos/57303475@N00/184371656/ nice, isn't it?
