Win 7 Super Taskbar: Fun System Date

One of the features of Windows 7 is the introduction of the "Super Taskbar". In addition to the various dazzling Aero effects, a significant improvement is the increase in size (should be said "Width" is more precise). It is this “material foundation” that allows us to view time and date at the same time. However, for the author's love more true, such "courtesy" is not perfect, because there are still a lot of space to "tune" on this date!

have friends ask, here's the short date, long date is exactly what does that mean? What is the difference in actual use?
