=== Who will use LineHive? ===
Imagine students in English, Science, Journalism, History, and Biology creating "linkliographies" that show the sequence of their steps to finding resources and submitting that along with their homework.  It automatically creates a nice timeline for the teacher to understand the student's thought process.
Imagine students sending each other timelines and these timelines spreading virally such that the most useful timeline in the class (created by Suzy) is seen by all the students and she gets 'credit' for it (her creation has a URL and a caption).
Imagine a person explaining to another person how to use a website or how to explore Wikipedia.  Instead of creating a screencast, tour, or blog entry where they have to explain in text how to do it, they just create a timeline by adding a few links and a caption.
