I rely heavily on jQuery, which is basically a layer on top of javascript that makes writing javascript easier as well as more consistent across browsers. One of the best things about it is the large developer community that makes their own little "widget" type modules available for others to use. These are called plugins. Need a photo gallery? Calendar? Form validator? Someone has already coded one, and hopefully the community has helped the best rise to the top for your choosing. I follow a ton of blogs for the sole purpose of keeping up on new plugins, and there are literally dozens of new ones released every day. Well, now there is a central repository: jQuery Plugin Registry. This should be very useful.
