Remember last open timeline and view

[almereyda]

When reloading a display on markwhen.com, the application does not remember where it was before, and starts afresh.

Timeline and selected view are reset.

In an ideal world, both would be remembered, and could also be specified through URL hash parameters.

This first, please. Markwhen caters to users with practical everyday needs like a project planner or journal (see: Markwhen's Marketing). The current Now default view is obviously convenient for them. The option to designate Center as the universal default would be more convenient for users with history timelines and safeguard against inattentive visitors who, upon being dropped into the blank void that is {current year} via the 'Now' default view, might assume the timeline is empty and bounce without bothering to click the 'Center' button.

Of course, having to click 'Center' as we do now is only a very slight inconvenience and therefore a low priority issue. I should think that it is similarly trivial to address, but I nonetheless admit that there are more important issues/suggestions that ought to come first.
