use TimelineJS (or something similar) to visualize the snapshots
The list of snapshots is not easy to use. Instead, visualize the time information via TimelineJS (or similar, but this one seems to be the best one) and allow the user to scroll through it.
The actual UI is a horizontally splitted view, where that Timeline is on top, and once a snapshot is selected, the corresponding directory is displayed below.
it's really cool, but i fear it's not useful right now. There are no callbacks for custom actions (there is a ticket with a workaround, though) and no support for dynamically loading content. I think dynamically loading the entries is necessary, because otherwise it won't scale.
What I've also looked into is the older, but with more features, timeline from the simile/mit project: http://www.simile-widgets.org/timeline/
It seems to have a richer API.
