The joy of the web is in its ease of access, and whether it will still exist depends heavily on your definition of the web.
The "internet-of-things" is only just now starting to happen (outside of anything but the main tech centres), and it'll likely take those 10-20 years until everything we live and breath globally is connected.
There's a hell of a lot of "disrupting" to be done between now and then, so it's going to remain an exciting focus for many.
That said, if HN is anything to go by in general, there are one hell of a lot of extremely smart people currently working to engineer the future of the web, and I can see their focus turning more and more towards the likes of space travel as the next exciting thing to concentrate on.
