in reply to Where do you turn for programming inspiration?

Seriously, when you're looking for something to give you programming/development inspiration, something to inflame your Perl passion, what do you do?

CPAN.

Seriously. There's some astounding collected wisdom to be found there. Dig around a bit, find a few modules that look interesting, and read them. I recently spent an evening reading Chatbot::Eliza, and came away with several good ideas.

Having a large collection of new ideas, even if they're just sitting around composting, is great for keeping the flame going.
