How about the miniaturization of computers? From what I recall computers in strories from the '50s and '60s were leviathons stuffed to the gills with valves and flashing lights that squawked a lot.
We didn't get diddy computers in stories until they emerged in real life - but I could be wrong.
Also don't think many writers predicted that half the population of the 21st century would be using their telephones to *type* messages to each other
