Google Hosting Popular JS Libraries

I saw this randomly this morning, but I can't find the source.

In any case, Google are now hosting many popular JavaScript libraries (jQuery, prototype/script.aculo.us, MooTools, dojo) on their own servers - cached, compressed and minified, ready to consume.

It's as simple as you expect:
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/prototype/1.6.0.2/prototype.js"></script>

(though, there's a longer, "better" way to do it if you're that way inclined, also)

See it here and the announcement at AJAX Search API Blog
