In an online survey of 895 technology stakeholders’ and critics’ expectations of social, political and economic change by 2020, fielded by the Pew Research Center’s Internet & American Life Project and Elon University’s Imagining the Internet Center …
Experts were located in two ways. First, several thousand were identified in an extensive
canvassing of scholarly, government, and business documents from the period 1990-
1995 to see who had ventured predictions about the future impact of the Internet.

Internet and Elon University, and they were recontacted for this survey. Second, expert
participants were hand-picked due to their positions as stakeholders in the development
of the Internet.
