Basic mechanisms controlling orbital order and orbital fluctuations in transition metal oxides are discussed. The lattice driven classical orbital picture, e.g. like in manganites LaMnO_3, is contrasted to the quantum behavior of orbitals in frustrated superexchange models as realised in pseudocubic titanites ATiO_3 and vanadates AVO_3. In YVO_3, the lattice and superexchange effects strongly compete-this explains the extreme sensitivity of magnetic states to temperature and doping. Lifting the t_<2g> orbital degeneracy by a relativistic spin-orbital coupling is considered on example of the layered cobaltates. We find that the spin-orbital mixing of low-energy states leads to unusual magnetic correlations in a triangular lattice of the CoO_2 parent compound. Finally, the magnetism of sodium-rich compounds Na_<1-x>CoO_2 is discussed in terms of a spin/orbital polaronic liquid.
