"I feel like I have to use it". Sure, as long as its in a prototype and I assume that that is what you mean. The problem is that its this "see a new thing and feel like I have to use it" that seems to be the single biggest source of accidental complexity in production software. So by all means use something new but not because you feel like it, rather because you have thought long and hard about it, tested it and can really justify why you want to use it in your situation.
