jQuery for experienced developers

While I was searching for some info regarding jQuery I run into a great post by Simon Willison explaining why jQuery shouldn’t be interpreted as “sweet and simple” JS framework for designers and inexperienced web developers, but why should experienced developers take advantage of it as well.

In this overview he explains why jQuery is so powerful and popular covering from DOM, selectors, chaining… through events, AJAX, plugins, etc. Whether you are rookie or hardcoded javascripter this article is well worth reading.
