   I posted an entry at January 01, 2006 @ 00:01 but when I published it, the timestamp displayed: # January 1st, 2006
   # 12:01 am. It is not correct, isn't it?

   Do you think that it is a bug?

   What is the theme you're using?

   Check your theme's templates to make sure they do not use the_time() template tag with a date format string which is generating your time in am/pm format.

   I think this may just be a misunderstanding of AM and PM. "January 01, 2006 @ 00:01" is "January 1st, 2006, 12:01 am."

   It seems weird, but it goes like this:
   11 PM
   12 AM
   1 AM
   etc.

   I have been using rdc0.7. The code in template is as follows:

   <li class="icon date"><?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?>
   <li class="icon time"><?php the_time('g:i a'); ?>

   Actually it is correct. 00:01 is the same as 12:01am. AM means "ante meridiem" or before noon (and likewise, PM means post meridiam and afternoon).

   If you want times in a 24 hour format, use
   the_time('G:i a')
   instead of
   the_time('g:i a')

   See: http://uk2.php.net/date and http://codex.wordpress.org/Formatting_Date_and_Time
