How can I parse this DateTime? (T & Z)

Question

This is the Date I get from a json:

2013-11-08T10:00:04.000Z

dunno what's T and Z. I'm trying with:

var dateParsed = DateTime.ParseExact(dateJson, "yyyy-mm-dd", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);

But I don't know how to continue :)

you can try something like this...

string dateString = "2013-11-08T10:00:04.000Z";
DateTime convertedDate = DateTime.Parse(dateString);
Console.WriteLine("Converted {0} to {1} time {2}", 
                           dateString, 
                           convertedDate.Kind.ToString(), 
                           convertedDate);

Check here for output

use

var dt = DateTime.Parse("2013-11-08T10:00:04.000Z");

OR

var dt = XmlConvert.ToDateTime("2013-11-08T10:00:04.000Z");

'T' means now time data and 'Z' means its in UTC format
