=========================================
\nEXPERTS CONSIDER THE INTERNET’S FUTURE
\n=========================================<\/p>\n

Is the Internet making us smarter, stupider, more dependent on it, or
\nall of the above?<\/p>\n

The Pew Internet & American Life Project and Elon University’s
\nImagining the Internet Center asked dozens of experts–such as Google
\nresearch director Peter Norvig, futurist blogger Jamais Cascio, and
\ntech watcher Esther Dyson–to consider the future of the Internet-
\nconnected world between now and 2020.<\/p>\n

Most of the experts agreed that the Internet will make us smarter in
\nsome way by 2020.<\/p>\n

“In the coming years we will have to continue to teach people to think
\ncritically so they can better understand the wealth of information
\navailable to them,” said Jeska Dzwigalski of Linden Lab.<\/p>\n

Janna Quitney Anderson of Elon University and Lee Rainie of Pew
\nInternet & American Life Center put the survey together. They’ll speak
\non it and on the future of the Internet at WorldFuture 2010, the World
\nFuture Society’s annual meeting in Boston in July.<\/p>\n
