Today’s date is neat. 2011-1-1 or 11-1-1 if you’re technical, 1-1-11 in either the US or Europe, where in the US it’s understood to mean, January 1, 2011, wereas in Europe it’s understood to mean 1st January, 2011. Personally, I like the technical designation of starting with the year because if you have mutliple items that span over several years then it’s easy to sort them completely without having to manually break them into folders for several years. You’ll get this:
2007-10-29
2007-11-03
2008-11-04
2009-10- 31
and not
10-29-2007
10-31-2009
11-03-2007
11-04-2008.
Although, if given the choice of US vs. European, I like the European designation, as it goes from the smallest most specific designation of our place in time to the largest. Date, Month, Year.
Yeah, that’s really how I think.
HAPPY NEW TRIP AROUND THE SUN TO ALL!!
