Found this amazing article which describes the 15 hottest trends following this year and coming.
Let's start with MEMRISTOR
The memristor, a microscopic component that can "remember" electrical states even when turned off. It's expected to be far cheaper and faster than Flash storage. A theoretical concept since 1971, it has now been built in labs and is already starting to revolutionize everything we know about Computing, possibly making flash memory, RAM, and even hard drives obsolete within a decade.

The memristor is just one of the incredible technological advances sending shock waves through the world of computing. Other innovations in the works are more down-to-earth, but they also carry watershed significance. From the Technologies that finally make paperless offices a reality to those that deliver wireless power, these advances should make your humble PC a far different beast come the turn of the decade.
