"2010 was a busy year for social media and the web. It began (more or less) with the launch of the Apple's genre-defining iPad tablet and culminated with the ascent of Facebook as the web's most visited site. In between we had the fall of Palm, the rise of Android, the surprise of Groupon and the success of the Facebook movie.  There was more, too, from fun new gadgets to embarrassing downtime (at a startup not called Twitter).\nIf all that was packed into the final year of the last decade, what's coming our way as the calendar flips to the next?\nFor the past two weeks, editors and contributing writers at Mashable have been gazing into our crystal balls to try to discern what's coming in the next year.
