Thanks Alexander, Steve, Dr Andus and Patrick, for your replies and suggestions.

I think for now I will focus on playing with MyInfo, and if that doesnt work then give Zoot another try.
Mainly because MyInfo has such a nice, clean interface (ok, I’m shallow, but I’m a visual person). It also offers fields, saved searches (filters) that include grouping information and will let me export information once/if I decide to really attempt the visual timeline.
I’m making Zoot my second choice because those things that really set it above MyInfo - feeds, Evernote, mail, are not working correctly and I prefer to spend time with the content and not the tool.
That’s also the reason I am not looking into Omeka or Exhibit 3 right now, even though both sound fascinating in their abilities. But I don’t have a server and no real intention to get into all that. Though I am keeping the links! Particularly the SIMILE Timeline Project looks very interesting. But I don’t want my tendency to CRIMP go into technical stuff too much, especially as I am so far behind on all these things. ;-)

Anyway, thanks again, and I will let you know the outcome,
Susanne
