What do you think the world will be like in 10, 20, 50, or even 100 years? What about 1000 years?

What sort of technological, scientific, social, economic and other advances would you like to see in the decades ahead? How do you think the day-to-day life of the average person will be different from our own in the future? How will the Internet change? How will our cities change?

Do you think we'll ever have peace and harmony, an end to religious conflict, and equal rights for everybody - or is this just an idealistic fantasy? Should we be spending more on space exploration, or should we be focussing on our own environment here on Earth? Will we ever travel to the stars, or colonize the solar system?

Is there a danger of reaching a technological singularity, where we advance too far?

Discuss!

And by the way, here's a personal project of mine, which I've been working on for the last few months, and continue to update almost daily. It's a timeline of future predictions -
