Hi,
I have been using a Google Widget called Days Since:
http://leancode.com/dayssince/
which just keeps an automatically updated count of the days since an
entry was created. I would like to have the same functionality in
org-mode - it already does something along the same lines (automatic
calculation) with the checkbox cookies.
But perhaps org-mode already supports something along those lines, since
it has lots of time related functionality, but I could not find anything
just like what I described. Or perhaps it could be achieved with a
combination of drawers, timestamps and dynamic blocks.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Nascif

Maybe you can start to manually store a :CREATED: property, consisting
of a simple inactive timestamp?
I can see a lot of useful things we could do with this:
1) regularily check for old tasks
2) regularily check for new tasks
3) use this to define "stuck" projects
4) use this to implement some kind of auto-archiving
But maybe seeing how old are all the tasks might be a bit depressing...
