under world of goo addins and under levels it only shows the highest rated. i think it would be nice for there to be a tab where you can choose to sort by date or rating or other. i find it difficult to find levels that are a little bit older than the box on the home page, but current enough. can we find davidc?

The home page box is designed to show "random" by default, to ensure that people see a good selection of addins and not just the latest or highest rated - the idea being that the top-downloaded addins don't just get downloaded more and more as a result.
On the actual addins list page (e.g. http://goofans.com/download/level ) it would be hard to be able to sort by date because there's not enough room to add another column. I suppose there could be a drop-down at the top for 'sort by' instead, but that's not something Drupal provides so could prove quite a bit of work (since that page is entirely generated by Drupal's Views module).

Wait, this site is using Drupal? I guess I never thought about that kind of thing.
It does sound like a bit of work, so I don't think we should be pressing this. If you really need to, you can use goofans.com/tracker for the latest posts/addins. (even though it's organized by last comment, rather than date)
