[quote author="Michael Wales" date="1215371484"]I take the wierd route of returning the minutes just because I think it looks better. Do the users really care if it was 18 minutes ago? When you read 18 minutes you immediately think, 15 minutes ago. Makes it a bit more user-friendly to round them out to the quarter hour.[/quote]

In that case, I would probably make it explicit that you're being fuzzy with the time ala "about 15 minutes ago" rather than straight up write 15 minutes.

Handy function though, I'm going to hang on to it, thanks.
