I thought of that too, probably using some 'mousewheel' event, but later I realise the page height may grow as well (with vertical scrollbar) depending on the number of events.

I'm curious about why you chose the horizontal plane in the first place, given that the web defaults to vertical.

  Well uh, that's how I visualize my life timeline in my head :) A straight horizontal path, left to right instead of top to bottom.

    Maybe bottom to top would be a better approach :)

Maybe a hybrid approach could work? Automatically scroll down and to the right simultaneously. If I understood it correctly, the events in the timeline will go diagonally down. So if the scrolling happens intelligently by following the events, that should work, shouldn’t it?
