Is there a plugin that can help create javascript app/site walkthroughs?

If not, (I can't find any via google, though I could've sworn I knew of at least one), is it a good idea (for a moderately complex app)? How does it compare to screencasts? What are some best practice if you were to do one? And in general terms, what are some ideas for how to go about it.

Thanks in advance.

Edit: As an example, something like this I just found. http://www.socialmedian.com/story/7818686/jira-now-has-a-live-walkthrough-demo-using-jquery

It was not clear what are you looking for until I've seen you have mentioned screencast. thus, you may find slideView useful displaying screenshots and text as a step-by-step guide.

That plugin, mixed with some fancy timeouts calling the next slide, might work about as well as a powerpoint presentation.

Thank you for the recommendation, though I think a screencast is superior to slides.
