The timeline visualization uses Highcharts JS which lets us plot splines with irregular intervals, a feature that several other timeline visualization libraries I looked at didn't offer. As you browse the categories on the site, you'll now get timelines above the results tables. Here's a timeline graph of Collin Jackson and Adam Barth's Security test results:
In general, things are looking up and to the right, which is a really good sign for the web. =)
You can get timeline visualization for any of browserscope's tests by hitting www.browserscope.org/timeline?category=[summary|security|richtext2|selectors|network|acid3|jskb].
This visualization also works for User Tests, which makes for some pretty cool graphs - check out the Modernizr timeline and their full compatibility table with automatic scoring and cell highlighting.
Additionally, I've been working with a really awesome developer named Nihar Kabinittal on a different visualization of this data - sometimes the timeline isn't enough fun. Our primary goals were to make a graphic that would be flexible to allow comparison of multiple browsers and versions and that would be instantly grokkable by both geeks and non-geeks. So here it is - this is Modernizr's data for top desktop browsers on Nihar's evolution visualization:

It would be nice to reset text selection after dragging a table in Chrome
Something like this will do:
(function() {
var clear = function () {
window.getSelection().empty(); // chrome
};
document.querySelectorAll('.bs-timeline svg')[0].addEventListener('mouseup', clear, false);
});
It'd be nice to clear text selection after zooming a chart.

One quibble is that it seems to compare all stable browsers against a dev release of Chrome, which seems to be an unfair comparison.
@nimbupani - Updated that, thanks for the feedback.
