Technologies and specific vendors may come and go, but massive cultural transformations and new kinds of relationships? Those don't go away.
I've read hundreds of cookbooks. Most of those cookbooks don't even tell you how to get a steak ready, how to bake biscuits or an apple pie.

At all times, think like a writer, and keep those antennae twitching - that way, you pick up new ideas.
