So I got a timestamp from Google API in the following format:
2012-08-21T20:19:08.452Z
My question is…What is that .452 preceding the Z? I believe Z denotes Zulu time aka UTC, but what is that .452….Are those fractions of a second?
Yes, those are fractions of a second. That is the ISO 8601 date format, by the way (specifically, the RFC 3339 subset of it).
If you want to convert it to a Unix timestamp, you can use PHP’s strtotime function (since you tagged this question
php).
