*** 2011 Future of the Internet Survey invitation
            ****

The Pew Research Center’s Internet & American Life Project and Elon
University’s Imagining the Internet Center are conducting an ongoing survey
of important stakeholders like you about the future impact of the Internet.
This year’s new Web-based survey about international concerns is the fifth
in a series of surveys of thousands of Internet stakeholders (to see
previous results, please go to http://bit.ly/yrgc1). ****

We hope you'll take 20 to 25 minutes to answer questions tied to eight
intriguing issues about the potential future of education, money, our homes,
and more. ****

You will find the survey here:

It asks you to consider aspects of eight issues, choose the mostly likely of
two alternative possible future scenarios and contribute your own thoughts.

This is a confidential survey. However, we encourage you to take credit for
your remarks if possible, as it lends much more credibility to the results
and contributes to a more vibrant conversation. *Each elaboration you
provide will remain anonymous unless you put your name and professional
identity at the start of it*. ****

The process of thinking these issues through is of value and the results
make a difference. If you know any thought leaders who might benefit from
participating, we invite you to forward this invitation or simply share the
survey address with them.

The Pew Internet Project and Imagining the Internet will issue a series of
reports based on this survey starting around the turn of the year. Material
from this survey will be added to the Elon University/Pew Internet site,
Imagining the Internet
(www.imaginingtheInternet.org<http://www.imaginingtheinternet.org/>).
We will not use your name or email address for any purpose other than this
project. If you have any questions, please contact one of us.
