Om Malik highlights 3 big trends that are transforming the web experience.

1. The web is transitioning from mere interactivity to a more dynamic,
   real-time web where read-write functions are heading towards balanced
   synchronicity. The real-time web, as I have argued in the past, is the
   next logical step in the Internet’s evolution.
   
2. The complete disaggregation of the web in parallel with the slow decline of the destination web.
   
3. More and more people are publishing more and more “social objects”
   and sharing them online. That data deluge is creating a new kind of
   search opportunity.
   

This has massive implications for those of us engaged in thinking about web development and online media because it’s a big shift away from what many of us have only just started to grasp.
