title: MySQL date format
body: <p>Does anyone know what would be the right type of a MySQL column in order to store the date in the following format? Ex: 2012-11-11T11:09:28+00:00</p>
  
  <p>Update:
  The part I was interested in was how to store the timezone <code>+xx:xx</code> of the user that took the action and the question was if there's is a MySQL date format that would include the timezone as well. Read the MySQL docs and didn't find any relevant information, that's why I wrote here.</p>
