When I look a people older than myself, I see a pretty clear stratification of technologies that each age group "just doesn't get"[1], yet it is hard to predict what this technology will be for myself.

My best bet is medical tech and especially body modification and enhancement. While I have been excited and unafraid of all new inventions my whole life, this is a topic that makes me more uncomfortable than excited - a reaction I often observed in people older then me with other technologies. So I'd say invasive body enhancements and augmentation is a good candidate to be the next big thing.

[1] There are always exceptions, but the overall picture is pretty obvious.
