Here is a link to the MySQL manual. Lots of good info here.

The max size of a varchar is 255 characters. You will want to use one of the text data 
types if you are going to store long articles. I suggest mediumtext. You can find the 
exact maximum sizes in the manual under the data types section.

A timestamp column gets automatically updated to now on inserts and updates unless you 
explictly set it to something. Datetime fields just store a datetime (you update them 
to whatever you want).

I don't understand what you meant by this. Can you give an example?
