Days

How many days old are you? And when's your next big dayiversary?

Days is a simple online tool that calculates how many days old you are and your next day-based milestone (e.g. 10,000 days old, or 12,345 days old). Counting days feels more "human" in scale than counting years: I can comprehend a day, while a year is overwhelming.

Media: Days received a lively following on Reddit's "Internet is Beautiful" community, and was featured on Random Useful Website.
