At times, I still fall for buzzwords in the technology space. Looks shiny and most of the very vocal devs are harping about it - maybe worth a try. At the end of the day, in the absence of buzzwords and hype, I sit back and come to the conclusion that tried and tested technology will still be able to do the work 99.9999% of the time. I hold the .00001% for those possibilities where you are doing something breakthrough that in itself merits to be associated as a buzzword. Until then, always proceed with caution and rationalize whether it is only hype or it is something worth adding to your arsenal.
