We recently integrated Flot functionality into one of our web apps at work and I really enjoyed working with it so I thought I'd share. Combined with a few functions to grab and return some JSON's from the DB, this makes for a great way to monitor system status. If you've ever tinkered around in graphing with CSS, then you may have a better appreciation for the tool. Here's a few informational sites and demos. Enjoy!

Demos:
Multiple examples
Flot with interpolate plugin (for curved lines)


Sites:
Flot Google Code page
Specifics on creating different graph types
Beginner tutorial
Intermediate tutorial
I'd love to change the world, but they won't give me the source code.

Was thinking now again of this, and using it for mailbox sizes from exchange.. hmm and http://solutoire.com/flotr/ is similar.

Currently looking at http://www.liquidx.net/plotkit/ but there is like no IE support without activex.. hmm.

Dropped plotkit, going with flotr but can't get an axis of just names for bar graph, annoying, excel is still the win I guess.
