(2,160,000) 1 foot = about 26 million years. (25,920,000) The whole page is about 135 feet wide, almost half a football field, representing 3.5 billion years. (3,500,000,000) For more information, move your cursor over the bars. To really gain some perspective, pay attention to the bottom scroll bar. To make this more accessible to the average person I have simplified the presentation of the evolutionary record. Students of paleontology will notice omissions. Zoom in by a factor of 1,000 on the Hominid Timeline, from walking upright to the present day.
UNIX History Below, you can see the preview of the Unix History (move on the white zone to get a bigger image): This is a simplified diagram of unix history. There are numerous derivative systems not listed in this chart, maybe 10 times more! In the recent past, many electronic companies had their own unix releases. This diagram is only the tip of an iceberg, with a penguin on it ;-). If you want to print this timeline, you can freely download one of the following PDF files: Warning: it seems that Adobe Reader has some problems reading the large plotter version of the Unix History chart, but happily you can use another PDF viewer for this task. Here is the ChangeLog of this history. Note 1 : an arrow indicates an inheritance like a compatibility, it is not only a matter of source code. Note 2 : this diagram shows complete systems and [micro]kernels like Mach, Linux, the Hurd... Note 3 : I have now a page where I explain how I build this chart.
Icons Timeline - Icons of England You have landed on this page because you were searching for the ICONS project - or one of the iconic objects the project featured such as the Spitfire or the Red Telephone Box. The ICONS project invited the public to nominate and vote for the icons we cherish about England in the 21st century - like The Mini and Monty Python - even things like the Full English Breakfast, Queueing and James Bond. The project finished in 2011 and is no longer published online. But before you click away here are the final list of 100 as voted by the public: What do you think? We will be publishing more content around the 100 ICONS of England in due course, so do check back. In the meantime Culture24 brings you listings, news, learning, exhibitions and fun from thousands of galleries and museums across the country.
