OPEN HISTORY TIMELINE v1.1
The Open History Timeline v1.1 (OHT) is an open-source
content-management system designed to support online community-based
history writing. It is a system that can be used to work
collaboratively on defining and writing history about any subject you
would like. Which questions need to be asked, and which answers are
valid? The OHT is designed with the idea in mind that history is a
practice - not fixed but alive, and invites users to make history
through adding experiences, anecdotes and personal perspectives.
The Open History Timeline is now available for download and can be
used in your own projects. Built on open-source software, you can run
the OHT on any web server with PERL & PHP installed.

The OHT and http://www.designtimeline.org/ were built and designed by
Femke Snelting and Michael Murtaugh. The project was financially
supported by Thuiskopiefonds and Digitale Pioniers. With thanks to
Institute for Network Cultures, Amsterdam.
