[jQuery] When / how did you find out about jQuery?
Similar tale here. I was searching for a new library to work with and came
up with the same bunch, Prototype/Scriptaculous, Dojo & Mochikit. Jquery
popped up during that search. It wasn't until I looked through thickbox that
I became a convert though.

I was in the process of trying to choose a route for my Ajax development
and had narrowed down my choices to what I called "The Big Three";
Prototype/Scriptaculous, Dojo & Mochikit. I read a ton about these libs
and did the tutorials as anyone would.
Along the way, I kept hearing references to JQuery and decided to check
it out. So in early September, I signed up for the JQuery mailing list
and "listened in" on what was happening in the community. I asked a ton
of questions & got some great responses. What I found was a great
community with a solid core group and a great direction. So I took the
plunge and went through the tutorials and realized how powerful JQuery is.
I have to say that I really like the fact that the core group,
especially John, is very involved in the community. It truly lends a
sense of confidence that the project is alive and that JQuery is a
viable solution to RIA development.
