@Adam, gordon33 is interested in getting string "4 years 11 months 25 days 3 hours 10 minutes 25 seconds ago" not just conversion — jmav, Nov 16 '11 at 14:58

Use http://timeago.yarp.com plugin.

jQuery.timeago(new Date());             //=> "less than a minute ago"
jQuery.timeago("2008-07-17");           //=> "3 years ago"
jQuery.timeago(jQuery("abbr#some_id")); //=> "3 years ago"     // [title="2008-07-20"]
