It looks good, and has excellent API documentation as well as discussions of general usage for the majority of the tools.

In particular it has widgets for auto-complete text inputs, a simple class for validating form input and supports CSS-style selectors for referencing DOM objects.

Being that the BBC is mightily concerned with scheduled transmissions, Glow has an implementation of a timetable for displaying concurrent “tracks” of time data – I think this would complement the Simile timeline library in various situations.

Seeing as I can’t do Javascript without jQuery or getting depressed, Glow is very interesting.
