One cool thing is that the tooltip is being positioned out of the
position of the hovered element
rather than attached to the mouse cursor position.
That is a sooo much more cleaner result IMO.

Hey everyone,
Just thought I'd let you all know that I (finally) posted a blog entry
announcing the official beta version of the clueTip plugin:
http://www.learningjquery.com/2007/07/cluetip-plugin-beta
I'd love to hear what you think.
Here's a snippet from the entry:
The new clueTip plugin allows you to easily set a link, or any other
element, to show a tooltip when the user's mouse hovers over it. If
the link includes a title attribute, its text becomes the heading of
the clueTip.
The contents of the clueTip can come from a separate file via AJAX, an
element on the current page when set to "local," or the title
attribute with a designated delimiter.
The clueTip offers smart positioning and takes advantage of Brian
Cherne's fantastic hoverIntent plugin if it's available. (Just include
it in a <script> tag if you want the clueTip to use it.)
It comes with many options, all of which are documented in the source
comments and on the demo page.
thanks,
--Karl
