Well, for me it was the Amsterdam Realtime project:
http://realtime.waag.org (btw, covered in Wired
http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/11.03/start.html?pg=7) one of the
first community mapping projects.
... plus last year's do-it-yourself "Mapping Hacks" :-) inspired me to
start GeoTracing: http://www.geotracing.com

I'm in the early stages of researching an article about map hackers for
Wired magazine -- I know the term "map hackers" is vague, but that will
change. What I'm wondering is whether folks here have been inspired by
any particular philosophies or theories of geography in their work? Is
there a Norbert Wiener or Lawrence Lessig of the geowank world? Somebody
who is geeky but also policy-minded or philosophical, whose ideas have
inspired you to make map tools or build geolocation tech?
