If you are familiar with Django you are familiar with a nice set of template tags called "humanize". In essence it turns data such as "13 April 2012" into "2 days ago" or "1000000000" into "1.0 billion". JS Humanizer is a jQuery counterpart to the Django humanize template tags we wrote and thought that others might find it useful too.
