Timeline for news readers

Facebook is going to launch new feature called "Timeline". It organizes all contents (including walls, photos, links, ...) on Facebook page according to time. It looks interesting.

Now I am thinking about timeline ... for news readers. Searching on the Internet, I've found some links:
- http://html5.labs.ap.org/
- http://feeds.allofme.com/RSS_Timeline.html?target=http://www.life.com/rss/news
- http://www.labnol.org/internet/google-news-time-as-rss-reader/9089/

This timeline feature has been being developed. There is still a room for us ^^.
