I am using nodejs with the node-mongodb-native driver (http://mongodb.github.io/node-mongodb-native/).
I have documents with a date property stored as ISODate<
ISODate<
You can use new Date('2013-12-12T16:00:00.000Z') in node.js;
new Date('2013-12-12T16:00:00.000Z')
node.js
new is a must, because Date() is already use to return date string.

ISODate is concepted in mongodb, you can use it in mongodb console, but it can be different for different programming language.
