I rarely look at the dates of these things (unless there's a post from Sydney)...

The more you ride, the harder you want your saddle to be. If you haven't ridden many miles yet and you like your soft seat, keep it. After a while, you'll be switching to a harder seat. If yours is already too hard, give it a week or two, and see if you get used to it. If not, switch it.
