I have 3 in my garage and can tell the newest to oldest if line them up, the tallest one is the oldest and the shortest one is the newest.
Just random chance, compounded by the fact that companies are making "ergonomic" shovels and what not that aren't supposed to hurt your back (those stupid ones with the bent handles). Other than that, I'm not really sure.

I beleive it was called the Wovel. I'd like to find out where I can get one.
I live in Ontario Canada.
Hmmmmm. Where to buy something called a wovel?.....what could you use to find something called a wovel? If only there was some way to search for things online and enter in key words.
Now thats something that would be useful!

“I don’t want another question about flooding, I don’t want any more questions about being vice president, and these kids! These kids with all these questions! I can’t take it anymore,” an exasperated Gov. Christie tells the camera as his aides suggest yet another town hall meeting. He decides to come up with a better idea, and heads to Newark from Trenton.
When he shows up in Newark and asks if he can help with any trapped people, “fires or problems or anything,” but is shooed away while the Mayor receives a venerable to-do list of disasters. Among the good deeds on Booker’s list today? Putting out a fire, shoveling snow, saving a falling baby and even making a critical guitar donation to a crippled Bruce Springsteen concert. How could Christie compete?

He's Got Your Back! Avoid Back Pain with Dr. Jeff Winternheimer's ...
With temperatures dropping and a chill in the air, the first snowfall will be here before we know it. While many people look forward to the season’s first snow, many more of us dread having to shovel it away. Let’s face it…shoveling snow is hard work! And if not done correctly, it can put severe strain on the back.
“People need to be very careful when shoveling snow,” explains Dr. Jeff Winternheimer, founder of the Illinois Back Institute with 4 locations throughout Chicagoland (Wheaton, Countryside, Berwyn and Orland Park). “While most people recognize the tremendous stress that shoveling snow can place on the heart, what they may not realize is the amount of stress and strain that it can cause to the back,” he adds.
“It’s not surprising that thousands of people injure their backs each and every year while shoveling snow,” he continues. “During the winter season, I’ve seen everything from basic muscle fatigue and low back strain to vertebral disc damage and even spinal fractures,” he says. “But, with proper preparation and a few easy tips, shoveling snow can be a very healthy, fun, and safe form of winter exercise.”
The following suggestions from Dr. Jeff are sure to help.
Dress for Success Make sure you are dressed appropriately for the weather with layered clothing that is non-restricting and easy to move in. Also, consider wearing a hat. A great deal of body heat is lost through the head, so a hat is a must. If it’s icy cold, breathing through a scarf will help. And, don’t forget the importance of proper boots, which are not only essential for keeping your feet warm and dry, but the soles provide good traction, which will help with your balance.
Don’t Forget the Gloves Using the right shovel can save your back from injury or pain. Be sure that your shovel is lightweight and has a curved handle (like the new ergonomic ones), which allows you to keep your back straighter when shoveling. Also, make sure that it’s not too tall (resulting in an awkward grip) or too small (causing you to bend over). I believe that a smaller blade is better than a larger blade. Although a small blade can't shovel as much snow, it avoids the risk of trying to pick up too heavy a load with a larger one.
...TRAIN OUT PAIN: Shoveling Snow 101: Don't Get Hurt
First lets look at what we know to be true about the lumbar spine. Flexion repeatedly isn't all that great. Rotation repeatedly isn't all that great. Flexion + Rotation = Disc Injury. Disc's are more susceptible to injury in the morning because they hold more water and are thus less supported. (You are actually a little taller in the morning because your discs are slightly larger.) It requires more core strength when you have center of mass further away from your body, ie a shovel with snow on it. Keep your back straight. Bend from your knees and hips. Stand up after you get a shovel full of snow and then use your hips to toss the snow to the side. Two distinct motions. Don't pick up more snow then you can handle. After you get snow in your shovel. Slide your hand closer to the blade before you throw it. This will decrease the center of mass and require less core strength. Get an ergonomic handle if you can. Better yet....get a snow blower.
