As I've said on many occasions, I think mootools is a better fit for 
Geeklog. mootools' philosophy is to be a better javascript than 
javascript alone. It is not a gui framework although it does support 
many gui tools. Core mootools is 63K with YUI compression and it has 
a $-safe mode just like jQuery does. And the mootools plugins are far 
better organized than jQuery's. I think this is because mootools 
makes js more OOP and so the plugins are more object like to start 
with. The mootools core dev team is also slow to add core features, 
giving such additions great consideration - just like the core dev team here.
