Well... It's not really "internet" time.... It's programmer time.....

The standard answer from a programmer's view is "two weeks". It's just that every time you ask the question you will get the same reply.....

Start of project: It will take about two weeks
One week in: Probably take about two weeks
Two Weeks in: Didn't I tell you it will take two weeks
Three weeks in: I told you last time TWO WEEKS... dammit
Four weeks in: Fuckin eh...I thought I told you ..."TWO WEEKS", now, if you hadnt been asking me every two fucking minutes how long it was gonna take, I could have been done two weeks ago.......

Oh ain't THAT the truth... if I had a $1 every time I'd had nearly that same identical conversation...
