Note that in the second example, if the database "world" does not exist, the database selected does not change. You may need to add additional code to ensure that you are connected to the correct database.

In some situations its useful to use this function for changing databases in general. We've tested it in production environment and it seams to be faster with switching databases than creating new connections.
