Google’s Time Machine
Google August 26th, 2006 - By Haochi
Maybe you have heard the “Time Machine“, an automatic backup utility that will included with the Mac OS X v10.5 Leopard operating system. Have you heard of the Google Time Machine that can index your website in Dec 31, 1969? Webmasters from Xyber411 and Taming the Chameleon reported that Google Sitemaps was showing Google crawled their site on “Dec 31, 1969″.

Just dropped by this post pretty randomly … thought I’d mention that this date is probably a direct result of the page not being indexed yet. This would return a -1 or false for its last index time. Add that to the Unix epoch date of 1/1/1970 0:00:00, and you get 12/31/1969 23:59:59! This is a pretty common problem when dealing with time and date calculations, and you’ll see the 1969 result often.
