    ISO 8601 gang. You’d never want to describe dates that way but for file management the convenience is massive.

      If you’re using a *NIX command line, something like

      mkdir $(date +%F)_photos

      is super handy.

      I do. Anything I have to put a datecode on, always gets a stamp of YYYYMMDD.

          That is the basic format of ISO8601, hyphens are only used in the extended format which is encouraged to be used in plain text.

          See ISO 8601:2004 section 2.3.3 basic format
