+plaso (Plaso Langar Að Safna Öllu) - super timeline all the things
+
+In short, plaso is a Python-based backend engine for the tool log2timeline.
+
+A longer version:
+
+log2timeline is a tool designed to extract timestamps from various files found
+on a typical computer system(s) and aggregate them.
+
+The initial purpose of plaso was to collect all timestamped events of interest
+on a computer system and have them aggregated in a single place for computer
+forensic analysis (aka Super Timeline).
+
+However plaso has become a framework that supports:
+* adding new parsers or parsing plug-ins;
+* adding new analysis plug-ins;
+* writing one-off scripts to automate repetitive tasks in computer forensic
+  analysis or equivalent.
+
+And is moving to support:
+* adding new general purpose parses/plugins that may not have timestamps
+  associated to them;
+* adding more analysis context;
+* tagging events;
+* allowing more targeted approach to the collection/parsing.
