Offset messages timelines
A computer-readable medium including computer-executable instructions providing a method of displaying arrays of computer-readable files, the method comprising causing a first array of computer-readable files to be displayed, said first array of computer-readable files being displayed along a timeline according to a first timescale; causing a second array of computer-readable files to be displayed, said second array of computer-readable files being displayed along a timeline according to a second timescale. An interface, a computerized system and a method for providing same is also disclosed therein.

21 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon instructions that, when executed, provide a method of displaying elements along a timeline, the method comprising:
associating a first plurality of elements with a first attribute;
associating a second plurality of elements with a second attribute;
displaying the first plurality of elements associated with the first attribute in a first offset position on a first lateral side of the timeline; and
displaying the second plurality of elements associated with the second attribute in a second offset position on a second lateral side of the timeline, whereby the timeline is displayed with two offset pluralities of elements each disposed on an opposite lateral side of the timeline, wherein the elements include a timestamp and the elements are disposed along the timeline with a non-linear timescale wherein substantially even periods of time are visually represented with substantially unequal lengths of distance along the timeline.
22 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 21 , wherein the first attribute is associated with inbound communications and the second attribute is associated with outbound communications.
23 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 21 , the method further comprising:
receiving a new element from a network;
associating the new element with the first attribute; and
displaying the new element in the first offset position on the first lateral side of the timeline.
24 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 21 , wherein the timeline is vertical.
25 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 21 , wherein the first plurality of elements and the second plurality of elements are substantially symmetrically offset from an axis of the timeline.
26 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 21 , the method further comprising displaying a first group of elements with a visual distinctive feature for visually distinguishing the first group of elements from the other displayed elements.
27 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 26 , wherein the visual distinctive feature for visually distinguishing the first group of elements from the other displayed elements is selected by a user.
28 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 21 , the method further comprising displaying an axis of elements on a transversal axis displayed at an angle to the timeline.
29 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 21 , wherein at least some of the elements are text elements.
30 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 21 , wherein at least some of the elements are user-selectable.
31 . A method of displaying elements along a timeline, the method comprising:
associating a first plurality of elements with a first attribute;
associating a second plurality of elements with a second attribute;
displaying the first plurality of elements associated with the first attribute in a first offset position on a first lateral side of the timeline; and
displaying the second plurality of elements associated with the second attribute in a second offset position on a second lateral side of the timeline, whereby the timeline is displayed with two offset pluralities of elements each disposed on an opposite lateral side of the timeline, wherein the elements include a timestamp and the elements are disposed along the timeline with a non-linear timescale wherein substantially equal periods of time are visually represented with substantially unequal lengths of distance along the timeline.
32 . The method of claim 31 , wherein the first attribute is associated with inbound communications and the second attribute is associated with outbound communications.
33 . The method of claim 31 , the method further comprising:
receiving a new element from a network;
associating the new element with the first attribute; and
displaying the new element in the first offset position on the first lateral side of the timeline.
34 . The method of claim 31 , wherein the timeline is vertical.
35 . The method of claim 31 , wherein the first plurality of elements and the second plurality of elements are substantially symmetrically offset from an axis of the timeline.
36 . The method of claim 31 , the method further comprising displaying a first group of elements with a visual distinctive feature for visually distinguishing the first group of elements from the other displayed elements.
37 . The method of claim 36 , wherein the visual distinctive feature for visually distinguishing the first group of elements from the other displayed elements is selected by a user.
38 . The method of claim 31 , the method further comprising displaying an axis of elements on a transversal axis displayed at an angle to the timeline.
39 . The method of claim 31 , wherein at least some of the elements are text elements.
40 . The method of claim 31 , wherein at least some of the elements are user-selectable.
