Something that still resonates with me from university (which is pre-www) is a quote from one of my most cynical professors:

Most people who call themselves experts at something usually just read a couple of articles more than the next guy.

These days, you just have to write a blog entry with a slightly more authoritative tone than the next guy.

That's usually what happened in this day and age isn't it?

One of your most vocal developers read a blog or an article and tomorrow he'll implement the new core threading part of the system because the idea was just damn good and suddenly y'all lose customers :) and he'll get the pat in the back.

That totally sounds like a dev I used to work with.
