Seconds represents time.

The name deliberately uses the smallest familiar everyday unit while allowing us to move across the entire timeline.

A link may occur within:

a fraction of a second
a second
a minute
an hour
a day
a week
a month
a year
a decade
a century
a millennium

Dates are particularly powerful linking mechanisms because completely unrelated events can occupy the same position on the calendar.

A birthday and an historical event may share a date.

Two albums may have been released on the same day.

Events separated by centuries may occur on the same anniversary.

But time is more than dates.

There are sequences, durations, generations, eras and cycles.

Years run in a line, while weeks, months and seasons repeat.

Seconds therefore gives Linkology both a timeline and a series of cycles.
