http://www.mappingworlds.nl/ "Raising International Awareness Through Innovative Cartography". "Innovative use of maps is central in our approach. We recognize maps as a powerful communication tool. We initiate maps to illuminate the issues important to the world community. Primarily, we develop maps in which the size of a country is rendered by an indicator, rather than by its geography ('cartogram'). Our maps offer a different perspective on the contemporary world."
Map (?cartogram?) showing how the world would look if countries were sized in proportion to various development indicators. :
Really just geo-plotted icons listed in chronological order (not really a TimeLine of any kind). "For information about a particular item, click on its name or its icon on the map" : http://www.engineering-timelines.com/scripts/results.asp?engineer=18 (not Flash)
