Comment (by mdawaffe):

 WordPress has to use noConflict because it also uses prototype in places.
 Even after we switch everything to jQuery, WP will still use noConflict to
 give plugins the most flexibility.

 You should use the jQuery object initially instead of the $ object to
 avoid conflicts with WP, other JS libraries and even other jQuery plugins.

 {{{
 jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
  // The function was called with $ as its argument so
  // inside here, $ is the jQuery object as expected.
  // Here on out, you can just use $.
 } );
 }}}

 or just {{{jQuery(function($) { ... } );}}}

 There's some alternative solutions here:
