Dear Lazyweb, please build me a wiki timeline of everything

I feel the need for a graphical depiction of events from world history, so I can get an idea of context for events. I’d like it to be sideways scrolling, zoomable and clickable. Initial population could be done by scraping wikipedia for dates I guess, and then the two would work together.

I’m not asking much for something I’d only use once or twice a month, but I’d still like you to build it for me.
