There's a good summary of what 2.6.33 brought here:
http://www.h-online.com/open/features/What-s-new-in-Linux-2-6-33-933312.html

The quick overview for 2.6.34:
- - LogFS file system optimized for SSDs
- - Ceph file system for huge clustered systems
- - Nouveau kernel driver (this one is a bit controversial)
- - The ability to switch between multiplexed GPUs on notebooks
  - Note this requires X to be restarted
- - The ability to suspend devices on a running system for
  better power savings; It can be enabled globally or per-device
- - IGMP snooping on bridges for selective forwarding of multicast packets
- - Connection tracking for TCP-based SIP connections
- - RFC5082 "Generalized TTL Security Mechanism," DoS protection for BGP
- - The usual load of new drivers
