# Future of the Internet: Role of the Web and New Media in the Public Sector

Pew Internet Director Lee Rainie was honored to give the [Joe Pagano Memorial Web Analytics Lecture](http://www.howto.gov/training/classes/future-web-and-new-media-government) for the federal government’s [Web Manager University](http://www.howto.gov/training/about). He discussed the latest Pew Internet data about the triple revolution in technology – in broadband, in mobile, and in social networking – and how these changes affect e-government and e-health activities by citizens. He also explored how these changes impact the broader environment of civic life and some of the changes that are likely on the horizon.
