I love d3js, but I had the feeling it never got so widespread as jQuery. Similarly, from my feeling, it never had such a revolutionary impact. Maybe I am wrong because the data-driven approach (ie. data binding) inspired a whole generation of frameworks. But is there a showcase of famours sites using d3js for anything beyond visualizations (say in a similar manner how jQuery is used across all web page client logic)?

The entire purpose of D3 is to be used for visualisations, so no, it's not really used for anything like that and doesn't have as wide a scope as jQuery.
