I always enjoy Morgan Stanley analyst, Mary Meeker’s view into the internet industry. Her presentations are chock full of facts and figures and it’s the closest thing to a Harper’s Index for the Internet that we have. Here are some highlights from her list:
91% of mobile users keep phone within 1 meter reach 24×7
Market Cap of Chinese Internet companies is projected to grow from $5B in 2003 to $50B by the end of 2007. That’s 76% CAGR.
A total of 21 billion minutes were spent watching YouTube, that’s just in August! By contrast, people spent 15 billion minutes in Facebook and 3 billion minutes on Wikipedia.
