Jay Rosen coined "Mindcasting" (about using Twitter). Jeff Jarvis coined "Link Economy" (On the value of links). Scott Carp of Publish 2 coined "Link Journalism" (On the value of aggregation). Although the guys at Apaptive Path coined it probably, Tim O'reilly promoted the idea of "Web 2.0" (aka the participatory Internet)/

A Wired writer, Jeff Howe coined "Crowdsourcing" (Getiing people to contribute in a news project). Chris Andersen coined the "Long Tail" (about there being a market for even one). James Suroweiki of the New Yorker coined "Wisdom of Crowds". Malcolm Gladwell, also of the New Yorker coined "The Tipping Point". Thomas Friedman of the New York Times is reponsible for popularizing "World is flat" phrase. Nassim Nicholas Taleb coins 'Black Swan' (something that no one could foresee or calculate). Tom Peters the famous business guru uses the "Wow" word a lot.

As you will have noticed, almost all of the above are famous writers and reporters. In many cases, their whole 'Post-coining" career has done wonders.

In fact Seth Godin is adept at making eac of his book a term in itself: Ideavirus, Permission Marketing, Purple Cow, Lynch Pin...And I am sure Guy Kawasaki popularized "(Business) Evangelizing."

So, what is your big idea?
