Great idea Yehuda! You've been doing a lot to promote the jQuery scene lately, which can only be a good thing for future development!
I personally would love to see something like the fisheye widget which is awsomely cool. There really needs to be more plugins on the scene that have the 'wow' factor. Currently IMHO, thickbox holds that title, and yet there are others that could extend Cody's work further with simple things like Interface. I've already begun work on a model window plugin/widget much alike the one on Dojo (called jAlert). Basically, they do the same as alerts, but look nicer, and can be resized, dragged, minimized, maximized and closed. This resulted from my work on Thickbox and JavaWin. wycats wrote: > > Dojo released a new widget today: a spreadsheet widget. and it ocurred to > me > that while we don't quite have anything like that yet, there are scattered > widgets throughout the jQuerysphere.
