Twitter App date/time like 'about 19 hours ago'

Hi Guys,

Is there anyway to get the twitter app to display the time/date like 'about 19 hours ago' or would I need to create this functionality myself?

Any suggestions at all if I need to do this?

Thanks Terry

You'd need to add it yourself. There are probably lots of open source options for that.

Perch doesn't do it as it's really hard to localise.

Drew, as the time is set inside the template (html) and I assume to convert this I would do PHP - how might I go about solving this? Can you point me in the right direction at all?

Thanks.

You can use skip-template to get the raw data.
