Creating a New Finder Column??

Question

Hello,
Ive been wondering for a long time now, is there a way to add another column to the finder windows to organize it in a certain way?
My "download's" folder gets bombarded with constant useless cr*p that I keep for the sake of keeping it, but I want to be able to organize them in the way of "Date Added", but unfortunately, OS X doesnt have this feature in its limited types of columns. It only has Date created and Date modified, both of which dont help me because those dates are moved around with the files themselves, meaning a 4 year old picture i downloaded today would end up at the very bottom of the list. ):
Is there a way to add a column?
What about with console?

as baltwo said there is no way to make a "date added" column. in fact there is no such thing in unix, period. That makes it very unlikely that a feature like this would be implemented. of course you can always leave apple feedback on the issue

However, there is an easy workaround for this in your situation. make a folder action that would run a "touch" command on anything added to the Downloads folder. that would reset its modified date to the time it was added.
Paste the following into Script Editor
<pre style="
font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;
font-size: 10px;
margin: 0px;
padding: 5px;
border: 1px solid #000000;
width: 720px;
color: #000000;
background-color: #ADD8E6;
overflow: auto;"
title="this text can be pasted into the Script Editor">
on adding folder items to this_folder after receiving added_items
tell application "Finder"
repeat with this_item in added_items
set ppath to POSIX path of this_item
do shell script "touch " & quoted form of ppath
end repeat
end tell
end adding folder items to</pre>
save it as a script in homedirectory/library/scripts/folder action scripts (or in /library/scripts/folder action scripts)
and attach this folder action to the Downloads folder.
