Of course, it's also possible that we have reached the pinnacle of human achievement and technology. Perhaps it's all downhill from here.

Mould how we think literally, neural/digital net interfacing, as already proven with a rat's neuron earlier this year.
There was a recent story comparing brain scans of people reading books and using the internet which hinted that net users brains showed more evidence of thorough use and multitasking. If we can delegate memory capacity to an internet that is, to all intents and purposes, infinite - we could potentially free ourselves up to pure creativity and insight.
We'll be fucked if there's a hardware crash though...
