The Pew Research Center’s Project on the Future of the Internet has released a new canvassing of experts focused on view of the best and worst changes that are likely to develop in digital life (in the broadest sense) in the period up to 2035. As always, these collections of ideas are lengthy, very diverse, fascinating and thought-provoking.
You can find an introduction to the report and a series of links to help navigate an online version of the report here:

I’d also like to take a moment to salute Lee Rannie, who is retiring from Pew. His contributions to the research work on the future of the internet and digital technologies has been absolutely invaluable; I’ve relied upon it as an important source of insight for many years. Thank you, Lee!
Disclosure: I’m among the many contributors to this canvassing. You can find my contribution in Chapter 2, if you are interested.
