// What It Does:
//
// www.flickr.com (photo page & photoset comments page):
//
// This script augments the footer of each photo comment with a
// localized date/time string for the posted date.  It reflects the
// value of 'datecreate' as returned via the API for comments.
//
// This date will be GMT but displayed in your timezone depending
// on how your browser Javascript implementation handles
// 'Date.toLocaleString'.
//
// The new date text is wrapped with a hidden link that will take you
// to the commenting user's archive page for that day, nice for
// interacting with photos uploaded around the time the comment was
// left.  If they didn't upload anything that day you can always step
// back to the month level in the archives.
//
// --------------------------------------------------------------------
// Change Log:
//
// v0.1 2010-01-11

// v0.2 2010-01-13
// * Name changed to expand to include all comment types.
