How can I convert it to a readable date?
$now=time;
print $now return 1066442632
Time is normally given as the epoch time: the number of seconds since the beginning of the clock under UNIX (Jan 1, 1970).
To change to a more human-readable date, search CPAN. There's modules that can convert that into almost any time format you can think off... (And some you can't.)
I personally have found Time::Format easy to use, but that's just a personal opinion.
