Maria Popova, a curator's code for showing how you obtained your mindblowing ideas. Two unicode symbols and a bookmarklet that you download allows you to show how others have assisted you. "The Curator's Code is an effort to keep this whimsical rabbit hole open by honoring discovery through an actionable code of ethics - first, understanding why attribution matters, and then, implementing it across the web in a codified common standard, doing for attribution of discovery what Creative Commons has done for image attribution. It's a suggested system for honoring the creative and intellectual labor of information discovery by making attribution consistent and codified, celebrating authors and creators, and also respecting those who discover and amplify their work."
