That works out well for people that are temporal-centric, and only for things related to personal events that happened in user's recent history which are easier to remember this way, otherwise ask yourself - what have you done two years, five months and two days back from now? How about adding ten or more years? How about other things, like accessing a musical piece or a user guide for something? I would probably know some information like the author or something about content's name, but not very likely the time of its date of publication. The same for a lot of other impersonal things. Chronology is not a strong point for that many people.

Of course, easier said than done - the interface has to support this of course, but how I see it: The older things get, the more words get tagged to the point in time. You start off thinking 'work I did yesterday' which eventually becomes "The 2013 Project", which you can also see as a data fact associated with the active Temporal view.

Like a giant browser history?
