New SQL Server article published on Developer.com

If you are looking to develop applications that need to store location based data and you are using Microsoft SQL Server, then you might wish to learn about SQL Server 2008's new database support for spatial and location based data.

I've written an introductory article about these new data types and how to use them from .NET/C# applications with Visual Studio. The article is titled "Using new location-aware data types in SQL Server 2008" and available on Developer.com.

Happy reading, and remember to let me know if you use these new data types in your applications!
