The Stuff I’ve Seen project did some experiments that showed how displaying milestones alongside a timeline may help orient the user. Horvitz et al. used statistical models to infer the probability that users will consider events to be memory landmarks.

E-memories in court:
“Electronic storage devices function as an extension of our own memory,” Judge Pregerson wrote, in explaining why the government should not be allowed to inspect them without cause. “They are capable of storing our thoughts, ranging from the most whimsical to the most profound.” The magistrate judge, Jerome J. Niedermeier of Federal District Court in Burlington, Vt., used an analogy from Supreme Court precedent. It is one thing to require a defendant to surrender a key to a safe and another to make him reveal its combination.
