Why does everyone like jQuery more than prototype/script.aculo.us or MooTools or whatever?
<p>It seems that jQuery has taken the throne for JavaScript frameworks and I was wondering exactly why.  Is there a technical reason for this or is it just that they have evangelists?  I have been really happy with using <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prototype_JavaScript_Framework">Prototype</a> myself.  Should I use jQuery for my next project?</p>
