US Patent 9633134 Timeline wrinkling system and method

A method for organizing event data by identifying a primary timeline containing event data, extracting a first timestamp from a first item of the primary timeline, setting a radius around the first timestamp, identifying a second timestamp within the radius, determining whether the second timestamp is already in a wrinkle timeline, and, if not, incorporating the second timestamp into the wrinkle timeline. Event data associated with the first item may be marked and emphasized in the wrinkle timeline. The system may also create one or more indexes of the event data.
