For some unholy reasons (New Year maybe?) I was charged with listing all "innovative things" which my company is doing internally in IT. So, my first question is of course: what can be considered nowadays "innovative" in software, in terms of

a/ technologies - like, lets say, cloud computing was 10 years ago or facial recognition 15 years ago

b/ functionalities - ie. migration of desktop application to web (last decade) or using voice to control computer (last century)

My personal focus is on web, but I am also curious of opinions from others domains.
