I'm spending a lot of time this summer looking at tools I've known about but haven't quite explored, those that I haven't used in a while, and also some brand new tools. I'm trying to decide which tools to use as I begin the school year - tools to help find information and organize it, tools to help create and share, and tools to help collaborate and connect. You couldn't, and shouldn't, use every possible tool, although I believe it's important to at least find out what's available. And, sometimes, you might decide something you thought would be great just isn't suited for your particular needs. Even if everyone else loves it, if it isn't helping you, then put it aside.
