Back to the Future Part II was on this morning. It’s hard to believe that we’re only a year away from that “future.” The future never looks like what we expect it to, but that doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t try shaping it. Institute for the Future is a Palo Alto, CA based “independent, non-profit research organization with a 45-year track record of helping all kinds of organizations make the futures they want.” Their focus is on foresight, but it’s not as much about predicting the future as affecting it.
To get a grasp on what Institute for the Future does, you might want to start off by looking at their History of the Future. You’ll also want to take a look at their Foresight Tools and some of their latest projects.

Right now they’re looking for a Web Developer
