A short 923 days ago, I launched a little tool with a blog post titled Mathematical Anniversaries. It was fairly simple - it would tell you when 1,000 days had passed, or 50 Mercury years - and give you plenty more excuses to demand birthday or anniversary presents!
I have meant to move it to its own domain and give it an update, almost since launching the tool here, and have been working on it since then from time to time. Among other things, I wanted to tidy up the code, add some more events, and add some email notifications.
Finally, it is done and ready for the big bad real world. Please take a moment to check it out, at Mathaversaries.com!

Thoughts from a Brighton geek about web development, marketing, freelancing, entrepreneurship and fatherhood. Probably not in that order.

That's so nerdy! Love the idea. A nerdy thing I do sometimes is celebrate my inverse birthday. So if your birthday is on the 10th of April, your inverse birthday is on the 4th of October. That way some people can get 2 birthdays a year (and taunt people who don't).
