New Freeware will fix Leap Year Birthday Glitch

As February 29th only occurs every four years, most web registration programs
don’t recognize February 29th.  Therefore, when individuals with that birthday
enter their information, they often run into a problem.

That is why the Honor Society of Leap Year Babies has released a freeware
available to web designers that will determine which year is leap year and can
be used for birthdate verification.  This freeware is available on the Honor
Societies Website. 

I think this is amusing. I never really thought about the fact that some web
systems might not recognize what year is leap year!  This is a simple innovation
in software that can make soo many peoples lives easier. I couldn't imagine
having a problem every time I entered my birthday into a web application.

This is an interesting new freeware.

    I think this is amusing also. These days computers and technology are
    so much quicker and smarter than a human brain, you think it would
    realize and recognize the leap year.
