Add "last updated" to Circle Gifts

Title:
Add "last updated" to Circle Gifts

Area:
shop

Summary:
Add the date last updated to each account on the Circle Gifts (http://www.dreamwidth.org/shop/gifts) page.

Description:
When using the Circle Gifts page (http://www.dreamwidth.org/shop/gifts) to buy paid accounts for others, I want to know how active an account is, so I don't accidentally bestow a paid account on an inactive journal.

At the moment, I figure out when each account was last updated by going to its profile, but that's an annoying workaround.

I suggest that "last updated" info be placed on Circle Gifts, much like it was added to Manage Circle (http://www.dreamwidth.org/manage/circle/edit).

I think anyone would be happy about getting a gift!

But yes -- we didn't know quite what we should do there, and we went for the "less pushy" option, which is generally what we try to go for if we aren't sure what we should do. I'm totally open to changing it around if people would find another way useful instead of pushy.

Oh, what if the categories were set to default "show" but you could click the little +/- or up/down arrows to show/hide each category at will?? Less pushy if you don't want to see say the communities or other users, but do want to see free accounts.

I'll toodle over and edit my post to add that.
