Easiest is probably to create a custom page variable for it.

    $FmtPV['$New'] = 
      '($page["ctime"] > time() - 30 * 86400) ? "- New" : ""';

Then, in the template you can use {=$New}.  This will display
"- New" for any page created within the past 30 days, or ""
for any page that is 30 days or older.

Very cool.  It didn't even occur to me to change where the heavy lifting was taking place.
