The Web has gone from an application to a development platform – new webapps, like twitter, live on top of the Web architecture, putting new and exciting engineering challenges on the underlying technologies.
One new thing happening in Science, emphasized by a project such as Galaxy zoo, is using many many non-scientiststs help scientists solve hard and important projects – there is a huge opportunity for new technologies that can help us manage the scientific, engineering and even social problems facing our world. It is a huge area for new tools and technologies to be deployed.
And for 4.0 - one big change is the move to mobile computing – there are now many billions of more cellular phones than laptops in the world, and these machines are becoming more and more capable – we need to combine communications and information technology to create the mobile Web
