I don't care. <span style="font-size:24px">Actually,</span> I care if it was helpful and you managed to create something new and amazing. If you like this experiment, I would love to hear from you via <a href="https://twitter.com/intent/user?screen_name=christian_fei">Twitter</a> to see how you implemented this in your project :) <br /><br /> <br /> <br /> Credit where credit is due: <br /> I wanted to create my own timeline after seeing Paul Stamatious' one over at <a href="http://paulstamatiou.com/posts"> his website</a></b>

<!-- THE CODE | THE CODE | THE CODE | THE CODE | THE CODE -->

<!-- Each event is wrapper inside an anchor with the class 'event' -->
  <!-- The i-tag inside the anchor creates the little arrow beside an event (see v1.0) -->
  <!-- FORK AWAY AND PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU HAVE SUGGESTIONS AND FEEDBACK :) -->
