 Preceden lets you organize important events into multiple layers. This makes it very easy to put everything into perspective and see how events relate to each other as time goes by.

The one clear use something like this has is the making of autobiographies. As it allows you to see how your professional life blended with your personal one and vice versa. Preceden is free and available here.
