I’m inspired by others, and derive some of my skills and abilities from what I’ve learned from others, so instead of bitch about someone copying my stuff, I’m going to praise some people that I have learned from in developing my own presence. (None of this is to blow smoke up these people’s butts. I know most of them. I like most of them. This is about me, and about what goes into the media I make). But it got me thinking about me.

I think most people realize, like you pointed out, that no knowledge comes without inspiration from others. I try on my blog, when I a directly riff, to acknowledge the original inspiration - whether by linking to a blog post or mentioning a book or person. Often however, things get so moshed together in my mind, that it is hard to pinpoint the exact inspiration. My blog roll is a why to acknowledge the people I speak with and read so that in the cases where I may not be able to give exact attribution, I acknowledge those people who influence my thinking. I've been pleasantly surprised over the years that the majority of people do find a way to acknowledge their influencers and give back to them...as with anything there are a few rotten apples.

Guy's written more polished books since, but "The Macintosh Way" is the one I keep near my desk. Still inspires me when I'm stuck with an idea.
