An interesting concept that automagically generates a subway map-style timeline graphic based on the names (subway lines) and events (stations) that you input. You can even download a decent resolution PNG of your map when you’re happy with it. 

The style of the map is obviously influenced by the Vignelli New York Subway diagram, and makes about as good a design as can be expected from an automated tool like this. The typography and placement of labels seems to be a little average – for some reason, the font stack uses Open Sans before the more obvious Helvetica (or even Arial), and the labels clash with the route lines a lot, as can be seen in the image above. It is a lot of fun watching the website “draw” your completed map, though!

All in all, though, this looks like a lot of fun and an easy way to make a memory timeline that you can share with friends or make as a gift. Give it a try here.
