Not up front like in this script. Obviously, it would be easy to do, but it's a conscious design decision.

Although it is helpful at times to know the time of the post, much of the time it is inconsequential. IMO there are some negatives that come with stressing timeliness that can alter the nature of a place. Also, I think the whole world has become a bit too obsessed with timeliness. :) For that reason, the time is there for reference, but not featured.

That said, I tried out the script and it looks nice. Baladas do you intend to keep that link active? If so, I'd be happy to add it to our tools page.

Yeah, I'm keeping it up. Sounds good! However, when someone comes along with a better programmed script (faster) then I suppose it'll be better to replace it with that.

EDIT: mimimum_wage made a better version of it.

Ok. I'll check it out, then query minimum_wage about it.
