Any chance we could have the year included and topic sorted by the (most recent) post date? It sure would be easier to tell if there was a new post on a particular topic, or what topics are currently being discussed.....
BTW, I'm referring to the "Last updated" field on the topics pages...
To Hope (or anyone else searching for the latest posts at Joel's forums):
Look for where it says "Search" at the left of each discussion forums section. Click on "New Messages" or type in a keyword search if you're looking for a special topic or a certain individual's posts or whatever. This is the shortcut so you can avoid sorting through numerous old posts when you want to read only the new ones.
