1234567890

In case you got curious as to what I am counting down to on the left side of the website, let me fill you in. Unix systems keep track of dates using a timestamp which is the number of seconds since Jan 1, 1970. This poses some issues with running out of numbers in 2038, but that is not what I am talking about. I am talking about the date and time for which the Unix timestamp is 1234567890. That date isn’t for a while as you can see by the countdown, but those who are curious might like to know that it is February 13, 2009 at 19:31:30. And even more interesting is the fact that that date happens to be a Friday - Friday the 13th. Good times will be had by all. FYI
