Do you know about : Technology adoption lifecycle ? Dare to be better ? OK !

The technology adoption lifecycle is a sociological model that is an extension of an earlier model called the diffusion process.

Beal, Rogers and Bohlen together developed a model called the diffusion process[5] and later Everett Rogers generalized the use of it in his widely acclaimed book, Diffusion of Innovations[6] (now in its fifth edition), describing how new ideas and technologies spread in different cultures.

The report summarised the categories as:

• innovators – had larger farms, were more educated, more prosperous and more risk-oriented
• early adopters – younger, more educated, tended to be community leaders, less prosperous
• early majority – more conservative but open to new ideas, active in community and influence to neighbours
• late majority – older, less educated, fairly conservative and less socially active
• laggards – very conservative, had small farms and capital, oldest and least educated
