Human friendly date descriptions with NSDate on iOS

Question

I want to display NSDates in a \"human-friendly way\", such as \"last week\", or \"a few days ago\". Something similar to Pretty Time for Java.

What\'s the best way

Answer 1

Three20's NSDateAdditions:

https://github.com/pbo/three20/blob/master/src/Three20Core/Sources/NSDateAdditions.m

.. allows you to do that as well.

EDIT: In 2013, you really don't want to use Three20 anymore. Use Regexident's solution.
