I hear that. I think the important distinction to make so you're not
annoying people is "Look at this cool stuff!" versus "Look at my cool
stuff!" Part of that is thinking about what your audience would find
interesting rather than what you find interesting. Most people don't
give two hoots about how the module was built or how it works under the
hood, just that it's easy to use and focused on what they want.
I say that having transgressed multiple times in this area :-)
