I hate timestamps. They’re generally useless information. However, I know people like ‘em for whatever reasons. So, when you tap on an item in incredible!, the item detail view shows you the “fuzzy time” for that item (“about 6 hours ago”) so you know about how old the item is.

But, because of my hatred for timestamps in timelines (the irony isn’t lost on me), I’ve removed them from your stream. Mobile devices have such limited screen real estate, so adding in timestamps (even fuzzy ones) is a waste of pixels. However, to combat this, I’ve added “time flags” to your stream. They appear in 30 minute increments, but only when necessary. (So if nothing was posted between 6 and 9 hours, you wouldn’t see a bunch of 6.5, 7, 7.5, 8, 8.5) flags. Here’s some views:

And here’s where there’s a gap in posts:

Yes, obviously this takes up more space the odler your timeline gets, but msot of what you’ll be reading will be the first 2 or 3 hours, especially when you have more than 2 or 3 networks.
