			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>I dont really know if I can call my self an early adopter. </strong>I usually wait for one generation before I adopt anything. This has come to mind because I&#8217;ve just became the owner of a Kindle.  The <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Kindle-Wireless-Reading-Display-Generation/dp/B0015T963C/ref=amb_link_17949842_6?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&amp;pf_rd_s=center-1&amp;pf_rd_r=11HBKYPQNE6D43BMPHFQ&amp;pf_rd_t=101&amp;pf_rd_p=51296882&amp;pf_rd_i=507846" target="_blank">Kindle</a> is an e-reader device. It allows you to buy books, magazines and newspapers that are delivered right to your portable device.  I have always enjoyed reading but it was in spurts. I would read heavy for a month or so and then not read anything for weeks. I am hoping to change that.  I bought the iphone months after its release. That happened because I saw too many youth ministers walking around with them at a <a href="http://www.youthspecialties.com/" target="_blank">youth specialties</a> event. I remember the day when I said I&#8217;ve had enough. Anyway it was great buy and so is my Kindle.</p>

<p>Is being an early adopter a good thing? I dont know. I got my twitter account soon after it was made public but didn&#8217;t do too much with it. We talk at <a href="http://www.studentlife.com/" target="_blank">work</a> about trying to be at the front end of pop culture. Talk would be the word. We were a nimble ship and slowly we have become and destroyer still agile in the water but a little harder to turn.  So what&#8217;s harder leading or following the leader. It may be safer to follow the leader but does it end it up costing you more? It may, if you miss an opportunity.  I don&#8217;t want to miss an opportunity but I also what us to be around in the next 10 years. We&#8217;ll see how that goes. I have high hopes. I wish I adopted more things earlier. Maybe that will be my new years resolution. Adoption.  Do you have something that I need to adopt.</p>
