    I'd say the term "thought leader" is a bad smell.

    There are few famous software developers that I would defer to. John Carmack is a singular figure. Folks like Atwood, Spolskey, and Hansson have had success with certain projects in a certain domain but their advice on software development and marketing is not transferable, it just isn't.
