What's the order of items on the main page?

Sometimes I use the main page of this site (weblogs.asp.net), and today I've noticed that this post,"Got my Wrist.NET Watch", is the first displayed item since this morning...

Considering that its screen estate is bigger than my screen size, I tought that there weren't other new items under it.

Please don't misunderstand me, I'm not complaining about that particular post, or its size, but I think that how the main page is sorted is a little bit "useless".

I prefer that the items are showed in real LIFO order, taking care of the timezone, or perhaps considering only the time they were inserted in the server (using the server clock) and not the local time of the user that have posted it.

I know that I promised no more complains for today, but I want the best for this community (and also for this great BLOG engine)

:-) !!!

fyi-I am having some problems wtih time stamps on my cross-posted items that were created by a new utc feature on .text. We are trying to work it out from the dasBlog end. But it is adding 5 hours (I am GMT+5) to my posts and leaving them on the top for a long time. Not intentional.

I had been experimenting with some date stuff. I think part of the problem is not everyone sets the correct time in their configurations.

I needed to make sure all of the bulk inserts over the weekend did not show up, but it seems to be causing more harm than good. :)

I turned the new feature off, until I can work out the kinks :)
