There are some new things that do things that just aren't offered by old
things. They're just different. These are almost always worth checking out.

I don't mean an upgraded major mode with more features, or a new completion
method (God knows how many of those we have around).
I mean things like expand-region, Magit, or sx. Of course, these are just
my preferences, and to each their own.

I'm curious as to what you mean by radical steps? Is that referring to
adding Melpa/Marmalade to your archives?
