I concur. It really irritates me that some writers feel their content must somehow be timeless and yet a year later it's superseded because something in the world changed. When I'm trying to research something completely new to me I cannot build up any kind of meaningful chronology using such posts. I do agree that the date doesn't need to be right alongside the byline but an indication of date somewhere on the page is important. Edit: As for people who devalue something purely because of the date, are these readers you really care about? I suspect there are annoying readers just as there are annoying customers.
