Thanks for the suggestion. I don't think that would apply here, though; I have some JSON data that includes a date as a string. I need to convert that to an NSDate object so I can then display it however the user wants, or compare it to now, and such. However, that's a really useful page (I love NSHipster) and I'll save it for another project I'm thinking about where data detectors will be useful.
