The Sample

Members of four online groups were invited to take part in a questionnaire asking their opinion on the future of the Internet. The groups were:

  • UK Net Marketing - A UK-based Internet marketing-oriented email list.
  • The Well - San Francisco-based online community. Notices were posted in the Internet, Future and News conferences.
  • Online-Europe - "Europe's Internet Business Forum" email list.
  • Haddock - UK new media email list.

76 people took part, 39 from the UK and 29 from the USA. Eight people counted other countries as their home and their responses are included in figures referring to the opinion of the entire sample, but they are not analysed seperately in the text.
