1. Agile Carousel
Agile Carousel is a jQuery plugin that lets you create a super fexible carousel with advanced setting options. It supports text and images in each box and a navigator to display in which box you are. Take a look here to see it in action, it's absolutely my favourite!
2. Yahoo! UI Carousel Control
The YUI Carousel Control provides a widget for browsing among a set of like objects arrayed vertically or horizontally in an overloaded page region. The "carousel" metaphor derives from an analogy to slide carousels in the days of film photography; the Carousel Control can maintain fidelity to this metaphor by allowing a continuous, circular navigation through all of the content blocks.3. jCarousel
jCarousel is a jQuery plugin for controlling a list of items in horizontal or vertical order. The items, which can be static HTML content or loaded with (or without) AJAX, can be scrolled back and forth (with or without animation).4. jCarousel Lite
jCarousel Lite is a jQuery plugin that carries you on a carousel ride filled with images and HTML content. Put simply, you can navigate images and/or HTML in a carousel-style widget. It is super light weight, at about 2 KB in size, yet very flexible and customizable to fit most of our needs.
5. Simple images carousel to create Flickr-like slideshows
This tutorial illustrates how to implement a simple images carousel to create a Flickr-like slideshow using Prototype-UI framework.6. iCarousel
iCarousel is a powerful carousel built over MooTools v1.1 fully configurable from the user just in some steps. You can change any default option just initializating the class with an object in JSON. It's tested in Internet Explorer, Firefox, Opera and Safari.7. Carousel.us
Carousel.us is an advanced Javascript 3D carousel which uses either MooTools framework and Reflection.js by Christophe Beyls, or Prototype.js and Script.aculo.us frameworks with Reflection.js. Take a look here to see it in action.

Excellent!
Nice. The problem is with Magento is it's not simple to use anything other than Prototype grr.
nice carousel i think, great ...
I used Agile Carousel before. Definitely it is the most powerful Carousel plugin for jQuery!
Thanks for your nice info
jQuerY Cycle is working for me ;)
How can we use these plugins? Could you please tell us more detailed?
Nice round up. Thanks.
By the way, on your right column, did you mean "Hot Links" ?
Now it is written "Hot Liks"
Great! :)
Nice collection, have used a couple of them before and will give the others a try. Cheers!
thank you for this great work, just like always Excelent!!
Awesome collection, it's so great to find so many resources online for JavaScript libraries to add neat effects to your site. It's almost like they multiply every day!
Nice post as always Antonio. Agile carousel is certainly one of the best I've seen.
It seems like you rarely have Spry options in your lists. Is there a reason why? I've found Spry to be very stable in comparison to jQuery at many times.
Dojo also has a similar component:
