speculation

The question may sound a bit naive or stupid, but i was wondering...will POST and GET evolve someday? What other methods exist besides those two?
I was wondering specifically about server-pushes... why can't exist a method specifically for that? I don't even know if there's already something similar, and if there is, i apologize for my ignorance.
The web is evolving, that's evident...will methods formally evolve too?
