Looking at that script, when the time reaches 1113062400000 it should just say "Over 2075 megabytes"

I don't know what date that is though, it's too long for a unix timestamp and I can't really be bothered to look what javascript does with realtion to dates ;).

Ah, they changed their javascript.
" quota.innerHTML = 'Over ' + CP[i - 1][1];"
it used to be
" quota.innerHTML = 'Over 2000';"

Indeed, Zogger. After lazy inspection I found:
\n
var CP = [ [ 1112331600000, 1025 ], [ 1112439600000, 2050 ], [ 1113062400000, 2075 ] ];
quota.innerHTML = format(((now-ts) / (CP[i][0]-ts) * (CP[i][1]-bs)) + bs);
\n
Which rougly says that the formula for the amount of space now is ((time since interval mark) / (time between intervals)) * (future mb - mb at last timestamp) + mb at last timestamp).

Therefore one can conclude that the rate it increases depends on the time between each mb interval.

Also, "Date.getTime() is a prebuilt JavaScript method that returns the time elapsed from January 1st, 1970 to the current Date instance, in milliseconds."

Thus, you'd take the timestamp, divide by 10 to get seconds since Jan 1, and you'll have numbers in unixtime.

THen, you just need to convert the unix timestamp into a human-readable date, for example with this page.

According to that page, the counter will hit 2075mb on Saturday, April 9th 2005. The time it does so will vary a bit (i think) as i'm not sure if the number will depend on timezone (seems unlikely - if it did, then it stops / starts not at midnight.)

I presume they'll update the source as future times are added.

I don't know what that is but the numbers counting up is well worth it.

I don't see the use in constantly increasing the amount of storage it offers. It already has enough to allow you a small internet hard-drive for file storage.

But hey, if they will give it, people will use it.
