Title: utilizing jquery's extend function

This is simpler and likely a tiny bit faster. You don't need to check if settings exists, since it will always exist, and jQuery's extend can handle an undefined case for you.

You could add a check to confirm settings is an object if it's set to something, but I'd rather cause an error in that case and let the developer fix it.
