Kind of dropped the ball on the url. days.to is great, but days.to/until/christmas is kind of wonky. I'd remove the /until/ part so it's just days.to/christmas

- gregmac 10y agoAgreed, though interestingly, http://days.to/christmas http://days.to/christmas does work. There's also a /since/ for each one. A simple fix, use days.to/next/christmas and days.to/last/christmas. Clean URLs, and they make grammatical sense.
- logiclabs 10y agoYes, you discovered quite a few of the "hidden" urls - also /when-is/. Originally, the site had exactly as you described with a cleaner url, but SEO had different ideas.
- tedmiston 10y agoPersonally, I think the "url hack" is pretty cool; I like having both. It would be extra cool if it considered each person's local timezone.
- logiclabs 10y agoAll the countdowns will use your computer/phones local timezone. If you're counting to a date (without a particular time), you'll get the remaining time to midnight in your own timezone. If it's an event with a time, you'll see the start time of the event shown in your local timezone (but the countdown/remaining time will be same everywhere).
