Wow, great article. Like several other commenters, I have been extremely slack in properly integrating date and time into my web content. I’ve also spent frustrating hours trying to ascertain the age of web documents on more than one occasion, so I should know better. Occasionally you do run into documents which are either extremely important or completely irrelavent, depending on their age – with no way of telling how old they are, it’s sometimes impossible to tell which it is!
Anyway, this has been added as item 0 on my site revamp to-do list. Much obliged for the extremely insightful look at different ways of handling this crucial information, and for all the further reading that you’ve linked to.
