storing Dates & Timestamps
As with most everything that’s out there, there are two camps, Database Date storage is no different. There are many sub topics forming a spectrum of options, but there are ultimately only two options: Store the date as an integer/decimal timestamp or as a date format. I happen to subscribe to the integer camp, and will explain why in just a short bit, but first I would like to make an argument for the later.
