Bevels and rounded bevel corners will make a comeback in 2009, just ask SKT.

Less content - where does everybody think this 'quality' content is going to come from? Nope, I don't see it, just blah blah blah out there.
Video - obviously, but I think this will become content, less boring text, more short, but well thought out video
That's it. In the end, good design is good design. I can't see anythign out there that will be new.
Oh, and hopefully we'll either see #1 good use of 3D in Flash or #2 3D meet a quick death in Flash. I hope for the latter, but I'll welcome seeing some innovative uses.
Experimental sites? I'd love to see them. Still loved the early DesignGraphik sites, Horus Project, etc. But no one gets paid for these.

I think F.W.A.-type sites will continue where appropriate, with Flash technology continuing to push boundaries. I'm wondering if Silverlight is going to catch on as a trend or remain only relevant to the .NET community. I think we're still stuck on the 1024x768 standard for screen resolution we should design within. For now make some top centered background art with whatever sized width you want... because I can see it at least.

targeting larger screen sizes like 1280, 1600 with progressively crippled low-res versions. (rather than starting small and progressive enhancement for large monitor). cheap flat screens are making it happen, 2009 is the saturation point (or maybe 2008 was and I missed it)
video production becomes too expensive for most web advertisers. HD especially. The static image makes a resurgence mimicking the time-worn full-page print ad. Creative execution will try to be cheap without looking cheap, rather than expensive production that aims to look like it was done by amateurs. Clever creative abounds as slashed budgets meet low workload.
'should I go freelance' threads will continue.
