So do those of us in the Southern Hemisphere roll it to December 21
or do we just freeze on the shortest day of the year?

When designing web sites don't assume everyone speaks your
abbreviated language. 4/7/2001 might be the seventh of April to you,
but to me it might be the fourth of July. And 2001/7/4 can be even
more confusing.
7 April 2001 doesn't confuse anyone.
