Another solution is to use the variable org-agenda-entry-types. This is
slightly more efficient, since it searches solely for timestamps when
creating the agenda, rather than considering all agenda types and then
filtering out everything that is not a timestamp.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(setq org-agenda-custom-commands
       '(("d" "With timestamps" agenda "List of tasks with a timestamp"
	  ((org-agenda-entry-types '(:timestamp))))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Best,
Matt
