ISO date for the win! Easy to sort AND easy to read.

YYYYMMDD is the only way, plus it keeps files sorted chronologically AND asciibetically.

%d/%m/%Y for people, %Y-%m-%d for computers. Both are perfectly reasonable, depending on context.

The first is also good for file structure when you're dealing with tens of thousands of files per day.
