I am trying to figure out which data types I should use for my tables. Does someone have a very good, simple, tutorial on SQL Server 2008 datatypes (has to be practical!) ?

The first link is more practical. As far as I know, SQL Server 2005 and 2008 almost have the same data types. (except new DateTime data type).
