No, you have come to the right place to hack Emacs all
day (and night) long! Please share as much Elisp as
possible. Your hacks are as good as anyone's as long as
they do their jobs.

Check out my Emacs & Elisp page [1] for basically
everything I did in that domain. Some of it is perhaps a
bit unconventional but most should be good in terms of
general computing and programming.
