The HIV Timeline website is inspired by the CCSF Health Education Department's yearly poster project. The project features posters hung in the Administration building hallway that detail five categories of HIV/AIDS history over the span of 1980 to the present. Each year is depicted as an individual poster that contains descriptions of historical events of that year in HIV/AIDS history.

The five categories for each year are:

• Public Health and Medicine
• International Information
• Political Happenings
• Social Activism
• Celebrities and Aids

The HIV Timeline website will take the existing historical information gathered over the past years of the project and translate that into an interactive timeline hosted on the CCSF server.

Mario is writing a research paper on HIV prevention and is seeking information with links to other legitimate resources. He takes a break from studying to see what's happening on Facebook on his iPhone, and notices an image shared by his friend that contains a factoid about when the first HIV vaccine was attempted. The post has a link to a website containing an HIV timeline. Mario clicks on the link that opens up his Safari browser on his phone and he is taken to where the fact is posted under the year the event happened. On the side he notices years listed in sequential order and clicks on those to browse other events that have been documented and reads some of the comments posted by other users. He'd like to find when World AIDS day was first declared so he performs a search. When he finds the fact he is looking for, he notices there is a Facebook icon next to it to share the factoid to his Facebook page. He clicks on the Resources page to find other websites that will support research for his paper.

Martha has recently reentered the dating scene and is looking for information on how to protect herself against HIV (the details of which she is largely unfamiliar with). In doing so, she has encountered the site and begins browsing. Martha finds a page easily with links to external resources about prevention, testing, and treatment. She also finds an embedded video on how-to have safer sex. There is also one relevant fact-sheet about HIV.

Andrea would very much like to be able to communicate and hangout with Jo (Her HIV positive friend.), but she would like to know more information about HIV so that she knows how to protect herself and Jo should also know the safe way to have the friendship while getting it cures. Andrea also thinks that hearing the positive messages from others who are HIV positive will support Jo emotionally. Andrea uses her mobile phone to search for information.

John is attending CCSF and taking the Health 67 course and needs to study the current resources. He aims to find some information he can print out. The instructor of the course recommended the website as a starting point. He finds the resources section and prints out the brochure. While browsing the website, he finds a quiz and scores well. He decides to share his results with his social network.
