Most likely post-nasal drip. The three most common causes of chronic cough are acid reflux, post-nasal drip, and asthma, IIRC from a family medicine article I read while in med school. If you had a cold a week or two ago, and are still coughing today (and obviously aren't still sick), it's probably some remaining post-nasal drip that's irritating the back of your throat and causing the cough.

edit: sorry, forgot to say you can try something to dry you up a bit like Claritan or Sudafed and see if that helps.
