When I hear of some new promising technology - a battery for example, search for it in Google News, setup an alert, and then forget about it. I got this tip from someone on HN, I wish I remember who, but it's been great: I'm able to ignore 99% of the newly hyped technology without missing out. I use it for new promising medical treatments as well.
