jQuery tutorial on IBM.com

I wrote a jQuery tutorial which was just put live on IBM DeveloperWorks today: Simplify Ajax development with jQuery.

I discuss a lot of the core functionality and philosophy of jQuery, including an introduction to writing plugins. So if you've heard of jQuery but haven't really decided if you want to use it, or if you've started to use it and want to see what it's capable of, I think you might enjoy the article.
