timestamp in the title (conforming to the
[datetime design pattern microformat](http://microformats.org/wiki/datetime-design-pattern)):
```html
<abbr class="timeago" title="2008-07-17T09:24:17Z">July 17, 2008</abbr>
<abbr class="timeago" title="2011-12-17T09:24:17Z">December 17, 2011</abbr>
```
into something like this:
```html
<abbr class="timeago" title="July 17, 2008">about 1 day ago</abbr>
<abbr class="timeago" title="Decebmer 17, 2011">about 1 day ago</abbr>
```
HTML5 `<time>` elements are also supported:
```html
<time class="timeago" datetime="2011-12-17T09:24:17Z">December 17, 2011</time>
```
As time passes, the timestamps will automatically update.
