Massive feature missing: last updated date.

I would NEVER buy a screencast, tutorial, or anything on web development without knowing EXACTLY when it was last updated. For example, the paid Ember screencasts claim to go over the Ember router - how do I know whether it was the old beta router, the RC1 router, or the RC6 "Promise-ified" router?

Sadly that's exactly why the last updated date usually isn't listed.

That's a great point, we're going to add that ASAP.
