2022? Probably focus on the big things of 2021. Not much will change within a year.
2032? Hard to say, but it is quite possible that software and the web will actually look quite similar to what we have now. I found the concepts in this presentation quite intriguing [1]. Some stuff like airplanes haven't changed THAT much in the last 50 years, because they are good enough for their purpose.
