I'm looking for a template operator that will take a date and convert it to "time ago." So it would take something like --

07/31/2007 11:34 AM

-- and convert it to something like this --

"Three hours ago"

Does anyone know of anything like this? I looked through the contributions, but didn't find anything.

if you convert it to unix timestamp(the internal format used for date and date & time datatype) you can subtract it from current time to get how many seconds they diff.
