Here's a version that uses the "HelloThere" tag on TiddlyWiki.com. You'll
see where to change it back:
<table class="tableFormatter">
<$list filter="[all[shadows+tiddlers]!prefix[$:/]tag[HelloThere]]
+[sort[created]]">
<tr>
<td><$view field="created" format="date" template="DD/0MM/YYYY - ddd MMM
DD"/></td>
<td valign="top"><$link to=<<currentTiddler>>><$view
field='title'/></$link></td>
<td><$text text={{{ [<currentTiddler>get[text]split[]limit[30]join[]] }}} />
</td>
</tr>
</$list>
</table>
