- write tech docs with your name in them as a contact
- when someone complements you accept it and talk to them about your challenges in the project to make sure they don't think it was a breeze and you are proud of your work.
- present info on it to your group or "announce it" if it's something like a utility or internal tool.
- Talk at meetings rather than flipping through CNN, realize there are stupid questions however if you're trying to become better known.
- Don't be shy, but try to not be a braggart, confidence is sexy
