On the degradation of language

Words keep getting added to languages.  This is a necessity because of technological advances that new terms are needed for.  So when do words and phrases start to become obsolete?  When they come out of usage.  How long does it take for this to happen?  Who knows.  But we do still have a lot of words that have been around for over 300 years.  We just like to talk.  That's just how it is.
