javascript wizard/assistant plugin

Question

I wonder if someone knows a javascript pluging (preferably for jQuery) to create MS word like wizards or assistant. To better explain what I want is a plugin for introducing a web site to new users, showing some message to do something and blinking in the links or buttons that they have to press to do it.

I remember seeing one some time ago but I cannot find now and googling is hard with these terms.

I found a very interesting jQuery plugin: guidely [link](http://codecanyon.net/item/guidely-jquery-website-tours/372309) — jalogar, Dec 07 '11 at 18:03

You could try http://amberjack2.org/. However the Library is not documented yet. You'll have to look at the source to see how to implement it.

Just found another library which appears to be easier: http://tympanus.net/Development/WebsiteTour/

Here are posts that talks about it:

You could also use the original Microsoft assistants ported to JavaScript:

Clippy
Merlin
Rover
and Links

PS: I would definitely not use that on a serious page ;)
