The only thing that has changed in my setup has been the discovery of ido-mode - http://www.masteringemacs.org/article/introduction-to-ido-mode http://www.masteringemacs.org/article/introduction-to-ido-mo... - but I've no idea when that was actually added to emacs, it could have been around for a decade and I just never knew of its existence! I think that with either emacs or vim, once you have got a useful setup you tend to stick to it, so discovering new features is uncommon (and both apps don't make feature discovery easy in the first place.)
