I often find cool and (sometimes) useful jQuery plugins, so I want to share a few that I like. I plan to share more in the future.
Adipoli jQuery Image Hover Plugin
Includes several different effects to highlight images as the mouse hovers over them.

jQuery File Upload

iCheck
Customized checkboxes and radion buttons for your forms.
Chosen
A plugin to make dropdown-boxes (especially long ones) easier to use. I looked at using this in a project, but ultimately opted to use another plugin, for different reasons. Chosen is still a good tool.

MagicSuggest
This is the plugin I selected over Chosen. The content of the dropdown can be supplied using an Ajax call, returning JSON, and there are a large number of configuartion options. The plugin support filtering and type-ahead, as well as many other useful functions.

SuperScrollorama
A jQuery plugin for scroll animations.

Sticky
Sticky is a jQuery plugin that gives you the ability to make any element on your page always stay visible.
Some other good ones are:
fullCalendar – Calendar
gritter – growl like notifications
tags_input – a nice tagging utility
select2 – This is similar to a couple you mentioned (chosen, magic suggest) for an enhanced combobox
editable – For inline editing
sparklines – Small line charts
I actually looked at select2 at one time. I might switch to it, due to some small issues I am having with MagicSuggest. My problem is that after loading the choices through Ajax, there is a blank one-row dropdown visible, blocking other elements below it. As soon as I click in teh control, it closes and everything looks good, but i can’t get that to happen automaticall. Very frustrating.
Have you tried using jQuery File Upload plugin with Domino?
I actually created a page where I upload/attache files as late as this week. I am using a jQuery/Bootstrap plugin for this. I will blog about it shortly. :-)
