title: Converting Server MySQL TimeStamp To UTC
body: <p>I've been using the timeago plugin (http://timeago.yarp.com/), it has been working fine on my localhost, which has its MySQL storing its data in the UTC timestamp, which the plugin needs to work.</p>
  
  <p>However, when uploading my project to the server, a different type of timestamp is appearing in it MySQL database.  I'm getting a timestamp like this: "Thursday, February 24, 2011 4:29 PM" from the server, whereas I need something like this: "2008-07-17T09:24:17Z"</p>
  
  <p>Any idea how to convert the timestamps using php?</p>
  
  <p>Edit:  The timestamps stored in the wrong format in the database are automatically generated by mysql.</p>
  
  <p>Edit 2: It's a field of type "timestamp" and default set to "CURRENT_TIMESTAMP" when row is being inserted in db</p>
