 * Hello there, dear community!
 * I’m running the private blog at errorblog.com and just came up with an idea unfortunately
   I’ll never be able to implement. So I thought I’d just ask here, maybe some of
   you cracks like the idea:
 * A widget, that allows me to keep track of how old the information is that I blogged.
   
   So if I blogged a link to some Led Zeppelin video on youtube I can add to a database,
   that “this is 30yr old” – when I post something personal it would be the actual
   posting-timestamp.
 * My idea behind this is that I blog a lot about older and newer music and I’d 
   like to collect some statistics, on how close I follow the mainstream, meaning
   a simple calculation of when a song was published and then blogged compared to
   the mean of all posted songs/band in my blog.
 * I hope you got it – my english is quite bad and i apologize for that. Anyway:
   I’m not capable of more than simple html so this will only happen, when some 
   of you freaks decide to create this. I can’t offer any money, but I’d be extremely
   grateful! 🙂

 * btw: as far as my unerstanding goes, it’d not take more than a rating-plugin 
   changed to not take a pre-defined number but a timestamp. A simple script should
   do the rest:
 * – (Actual Posting Timestamp) – (Entered Info Timestamp) = (Age of Info)
 * – mean deviation: ((Age of Info)+(n * Age of Info) / n) = X yr (The mean deviation
   of how old the information on my blog is, concerning all entries)
 * – Standard Deviation of the Mean: Showing in every Posts, how many years it’s
   away from the mean deviation. For example “Tokio Hotel is 20yr away from your
   SDM of 15yr” 😉

 * Lester Chan has a plugin wp_relativedate, try that for starters.
