Happy New Year!

I didn't count, but I know there are a few Jewish people following my blog, and vice-and-versa, so Shanah Tovah to you guys!

(I'm one day late, am I not? <_<)

I really do think that tech is capable of keeping up with the change but somehow...
Me too. Not a programmer but I'm sure it's possible to enter code and functions to synchronise the two calendars. It doesn't look undoable.

Ohh, that explains why Google said it was two days. Does it also change country per country? E.g. Ethiopian Jews vs Indian Jews, or the country of origin isn't so much an influence as the branches/movements are?

Nope! It entirely depends on whether you're in the diaspora (aka outside of the land of Israel) or not, with the exception of the Reform movement which even in diaspora celebrates as a single day. I'm sure there are exceptions, but that is the general rule.
