First, load jQuery and the plugin:
``html`
Now, let's attach it to your timestamps on DOM ready - put this in the head
section:
`html`
This will turn all
`html`
into something like this:
`html`
elements are also supported (this is fortime
legacy microformat support
and was originally supported by the library before the element was
introduced to HTML5):
`html`

As time passes, the timestamps will automatically update.
If you want to update a timestamp programatically later, call the update
function with a new ISO8601 timestamp of object. For example:
`javascript`
$("time#some_id").timeago("update", "2013-12-17T09:24:17Z");
// or
$("time#some_id").timeago("update", new Date());
For more usage and examples: http://timeago.yarp.com/
For different language configurations: visit the locales directory.
cutoff : Return the original date if time distance is older than cutoff (miliseconds).
`javascript`
// Display original dates older than 24 hours
jQuery.timeago.settings.cutoff = 10006060*24;
