Examples of web-based drag and drop functionality
i led the original design and development of myheavy (now heavy 2.0).
among the features was an "itunes for video" that we developed in early
2006, which allows you to drag and drop video from another user's profile
into your own libraries, or move them between your libraries or even
re-arrange the order of your videos.
here's a link to how it looks and works (no mouse cursor):

drawbacks - cross browser drag and drop is very pokey.

jQuery has a very nice drag and drop ajax/js dom library for drag and drop -
think about iGoogle - home page - set it up - any widgets can be picked up
and moved to other places (pre-determined).

jquery is very nice and we use it in some places but like most of these
libraries, it's very heavy.
the myheavy/heavy 2.0 was written using prototype, which is more bare bones
and light weight.

Your right - the jQuery library has ALOT of stuff tossed in - most of which
you may not need just for drap and drop.

Similar to iGoogle, there's Netvibes (my start page of choice -
http://www.netvibes.com )...which has some nice drag-and-drop functionality
(dragging widgets and panels, dragging items to new tabs, etc). Probably
very similar to iGoogle.
Also, there is the classic example of the Netflix queue (
http://www.netflix.com/Queue - if you have an account)...which allows you to
reorder things nicely (though I've noticed performance issues recently with
a large queue).

I used toolman Javscript library : http://tool-man.org/examples/
This page has cool examples of drag and drop for lists and other
direct manipulations.

In addition to iGoogle, Google Reader lets you drag and drop to reorder your
feed list. And in Google Calendar, you can move events using drag and drop.

Another example of Drag-and-drop:
I recently started playing with Zude (www.zude.com). You can
*drag-and-drop* pages from other sites into Zude running in another
browser instance. Zude makes it easy to maintain your web presence in
many places from one place. For instance you can see if comments
happened on your flickr galleries, your MySpace page, your Facebook
page, and post to Twitter from your free Zude page.
-- Thanks!

Some public examples I have seen are
www.bbc.co.uk
and I just saw that the redesigned LinkedIn now allows some dragging of components.

I'm involved in a community source project that is building usable &
accessible UI components. One of our first is an accessible drag and
drop component, the Reorder. You can check out information (demo &
technical info) on the component on our wiki, http://wiki.fluidproject.org/display/fluid/Components
. The dev team is putting some final touches on the component to
allow it to work with screen readers (which will be in our next
release) but the current version works with a mouse and/or keyboard-
only interaction. We've implemented it as a Lightbox which allows
dragging and dropping thumbnails of images and now are working on a
Portlet Layout Manager. Info on all of these is on the wiki.
The Fluid project is a grant funded project in Higher Education that
is meant to improve UX in several open/community source projects
through education, community building, and delivery of UI components
and related design patterns. If you're interested you can find more
information at fluidproject.org (our website) and the wiki
(wiki.fluidproject.org).
Hope this helps!
