Source: Nearly two decades ago we worked on this problem and read a bunch of research. We ended up making an app that let you input multiple facets to narrow things down, with the basic view being a calendar: https://nemo-docs.com/ https://nemo-docs.com/
We didn't have anyone marketing it, so it never really took off. The original plan was to build a serverless/P2P storage system underneath so sharing would be seamless and not require messing with servers, but never got that far.
- nutrie 2y agoI really like the idea behind this. That's what the Recent view should look like.

- johnchristopher 2y agoOh, I see. You put files/objects/data on a timeline. I wish the semantic desktop had brought us that. There's a firefox extension that conveniently displays your history in a calendar form and it's really useful. Do you have any articles about that ?
