Should I *always* favour implictly typed local variables in C# 3.0?

Question

Resharper certainly thinks so, and out of the box it will nag you to convert

Dooberry dooberry = new Dooberry();

to

var doo

@jongalloway - var doesn't necessarily make your code more unreadable.

var myvariable = DateTime.Now
DateTime myvariable = DateTime.Now;

The first is just as readable as the second, and requires less work

var myvariable = ResultFromMethod();

here, you have a point, var could make the code less readable. I like var because if i change a decimal to a double, i don't have to go change it in a bunch of places (and don't say refactor, sometimes i forget, just let me var!)

EDIT: just read article, i agree. lol.
