If you use micro-blogging services like Twitter then you may be aware of the way they show how long ago the status was updated, So, how about integrating the same feature in your Wordpress blog and replace that old boring time stamp to this new "Time Ago".
Open functions.php file of your theme and paste following code and Save:
function time_ago( $type = 'post' ) {
$d = 'comment' == $type ? 'get_comment_time' : 'get_post_time';
return human_time_diff($d('U'), current_time('timestamp')) . " " . __('ago');
}
Now place the following snippet in either single.php or comments.php (wherever you want to show it) within loop.
<?php echo time_ago(); ?>
Thanks to Chris for sharing this code.
