Our very own @Tom wrote a slick jQuery plugin for WordPress that you’ve probably seen implemented on more than some of the top websites out there.
You have to check it out. We’re considering using it here throughout the 8BIT Network and it’ll be slick.
Just scroll down the demo and see it pop out – magic!
And then dream of how you might use it for awesomeness.

Slick! Just curious, what top sites are currently using this?

What would it be used for? It may be just me but in most situations I see those implemented I find them an obtrusive, annoying distraction from what I’m actually paying attention to.
I’m not saying that it would be a bad thing in all situations, but most of the time they contain undesired, unrelated and useless or shameless plugs.
Maybe instead of having another set of text adds, it could contain links to related products or posts or the author’s info so that isn’t hidden on a tab behind the existing related posts.

That sounds more like a rant against the way tools tools are used, not the actual tool itself.
