>I also think that knowing algorithms does make you a better programmer, even if you don't use them on a daily basis.
IMO this helps at the most very basic level because it lets us consider "hey, I wonder if there's an algorithm out there that'd help me with this" and gives you the impetus you need to go looking.
Kind of a "you know what you don't know" situation of sorts.
