      <h2>a jQuery plugin</h2>

      <h3>What?</h3>
      <p>
        Timeago is a jQuery plugin that makes it easy to support automatically updating fuzzy
        timestamps (e.g. "4 minutes ago" or "about 1 day ago").  <a href="jquery.timeago.js">Download</a>, view
        the examples, and enjoy.
      </p>
      <p class="example">
        You opened this page <abbr class="loaded timeago">sometime before now <span class="help">(turn on javascript, loser)</span></abbr>. <span class="help">(This will update every minute. Wait for it.)</span>
      </p>
      <p class="example">
        This page was last modified <abbr class="modified timeago">sometime before now [browser might not support document.lastModified]</abbr>.
      </p>
      <p class="example">
        Ryan was born <abbr class="timeago" title="1978-12-18T17:17:00Z">Dec 18, 1978</abbr>.
      </p>

      <h3>Why?</h3>
      <p>Timeago was originally built for use with <a href="http://yarp.com">Yarp.com</a> to timestamp comments.</p>
      <ul>
        <li>Avoid timestamps dated "1 minute ago" even though the page was opened 10 minutes ago; <em>timeago refreshes automatically</em>, </li>
        <li>You can <em>take full advantage of page caching</em> in your web applications, because the timestamps aren't calculated on the server.</li>
        <li>You get to <em>use <a href="http://microformats.org/">microformats</a></em> like the cool kids.</li>
      </ul>

      <h3>How?</h3>
      <p class="how">
        First, load <a href="http://jquery.com/">jQuery</a> and the plugin:
      </p>
      <pre>
&lt;script src=&quot;jquery.min.js&quot; type=&quot;text/javascript&quot;&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
&lt;script src=&quot;jquery.timeago.js&quot; type=&quot;text/javascript&quot;&gt;&lt;/script&gt;</pre>
      <p class="how">
        Now, let's attach it to your timestamps on DOM ready:
      </p>
      <pre>
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
  jQuery('abbr[class*=timeago]').timeago();
});</pre>
      <p class="how">
        This will turn all <tt>abbr</tt> elements with a class
        of <tt>timeago</tt> and an <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601">ISO 8601</a> timestamp in the title:
      </p>
      <pre>
&lt;abbr class=&quot;<em>timeago</em>&quot; title=&quot;<em>2008-07-17T09:24:17Z</em>&quot;&gt;July 17, 2008&lt;/abbr&gt;</pre>
      <p class="how">
        into something like this:
      </p>
      <pre>
&lt;abbr class=&quot;timeago&quot; title=&quot;2008-07-17T09:24:17Z&quot;&gt;<em><abbr class="timeago" title="2008-07-17T09:24:17Z">time ago</abbr></em>&lt;/abbr&gt;</pre>
      <p>
        which yields: <abbr class="timeago" title="2008-07-17T09:24:17Z">July 17, 2008</abbr>.  As time passes, the timestamps will automatically update.
      </p>

      <p class="how">
        You can also use it programmatically:
      </p>
      <pre>
jQuery.timeago(new Date());             //=> &quot;<span id="prog_date"></span>&quot;
jQuery.timeago("2008-07-17");           //=> &quot;<span id="prog_string"></span>&quot;
jQuery.timeago(jQuery("abbr#some_id")); //=> &quot;<span id="prog_element"></span>&quot;     // [title=&quot;2008-07-20&quot;]</pre>

      <p class="how">
        To support timestamps in the future, use the <tt>allowFuture</tt> setting:
      </p>
      <pre>
jQuery.timeago.settings.allowFuture = true;</pre>

      <h3>Excusez-moi?</h3>
      <p>
        Yes, timeago has locale/i18n/language support.  Here are some <a href="http://gist.github.com/6251">configuration examples</a>.  Email <a href="http://ryan.mcgeary.org">Ryan McGeary</a> for corrections or additional languages.
      </p>

      <h3>Where?</h3>
      <p><a href="jquery.timeago.js">Download the &quot;stable&quot; release</a>.</p>
      <p>
        The code is hosted on
        GitHub: <a href="http://github.com/rmm5t/jquery-timeago">http://github.com/rmm5t/jquery-timeago</a>.
        Go on, live on the edge.
      </p>

      <h3>Who?</h3>
      <p>
        Timeago was built by <a href="http://ryan.mcgeary.org">Ryan McGeary</a>
        (<a href="http://twitter.com/rmm5t">@rmm5t</a>) while standing on the
        shoulders of giants.  John Resig wrote about
        a <a href="http://ejohn.org/blog/javascript-pretty-date/">similar
        approach</a>.  The verbiage was based on
        the <tt>distance_of_time_in_words</tt> ActionView helper
        in <a href="http://rubyonrails.org">Ruby on Rails</a>.
      </p>

      <h3>When?</h3>
      <p>
        Timeago was conceived <abbr class="timeago" title="2008-07-17T02:30:00-0500">on July 17, 2008</abbr>.  <span class="help">(Yup, that's powered by timeago too)</span>
      </p>

      <h3>Huh?</h3>
      <p class="last">
        Need a Rails helper to make those fancy microformat <tt>abbr</tt> tags?  Fine, here ya go:
      </p>
      <pre>
def timeago(time, options = {})
  options[:class] ||= "timeago"
  content_tag(:abbr, time.to_s, options.merge(:title => time.getutc.iso8601)) if time
end</pre>
