 It would be very convenient to have a button called "Now" in "Edit post"
 window in "Published on: date @ time" section.

 Google likes to know when old posts gets updated. So it is recommended to
 update post "published on:" date when post content is updated. When a user
 wants to update publishing time and date of a post, he must click "Edit",
 then manually enter year, month, day, hour and minute of current date and
 time and then click "Update post". It is quite slow and dull process but
 it could be automated easily with a new button.

 It would be very nice to have a button called "Now" which should
 automatically fill in year, month, day, hour and minute fields with values
 of current date and time.

 Whenever a user updates post publishing date and time, the date and time
 that he/she usually enters is current date and time. The "Now" button
 would be a big time saver for users who update their posts.
