I think that the abundance of data will also have tremendous impact in how internet users will interact with data. Just check out companies such as Junar, BuzzData or Factual among others.

Instead of having a number of different systems in use, just one big data implementation is used to run everything.
That will make big data even more relevant and mainstream.
