9/11 Interactive Timeline Shares Firsthand Accounts of Tragedy




The 9/11 timeline uses photos, video and audio clips to describe what happened at the Trade Center on September 11, 2001

Archetype International, a California-based design and engineering company, built the timeline over the past six months.

"It was such a profound moment in our history that it really needs to be remembered and revisited," said Mike Lucaccini, president of Archetype.

Lucaccini added a feature that allows people to share an individual piece of the timeline by e-mail, Facebook and Twitter, so they can discuss their own 9/11 experiences with others.

The timeline includes the familiar but still emotionally devastating footage of the towers' collapse, along with lesser-known images, like flyers for September 2001 events at the World Trade Center, which were canceled by the attacks. The memorial foundation chose not to include footage of people jumping from the towers.
