Unless you are archiving something or sorting music, I do dd/mm/yyyy.

Usually on homework and stuff I just put date/year, but on papers I put the dd/mm/yyyy.

If you are indexing music it's best to go by year. And for archiving shit it's best to go year/month/date.

I never understood why United States driver license and birth certificates always go MM/DD/YYYY. The year is most important for buying booze and stuff and I hate it when the cashier guy has to think about when I was born for 6 minutes to figure out if I'm 21. It's pretty fucking simple though. It's 2009. If you were born before '88 you can buy booze. If you really need to get picky you need to have been born before June in '88.
