				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://venturebeat.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/meeker-slide-24.png" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-583706" alt="Slide 24 from Mary Meeker's 2012 State of the Internet year-end report" src="http://venturebeat.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/meeker-slide-24.png?w=558&#038;h=359" height="359" width="558" /></a><br />
Mary Meeker, a partner at Kleiner Perkins Caulfield and Byers, has just published her latest huge deck of amazingly useful data, the &#8220;2012 Internet Trends Year-End Update.&#8221;</p>
<p>Meeker is delivering her report to a group of Students at Stanford University, and Kleiner Perkins is live-tweeting the presentation on Twitter at <a href="https://twitter.com/kpcb" target="_blank">@kpcb</a>.</p>
<p>This is an update to a <a href="http://venturebeat.com/2012/05/30/mary-meeker-internet-trends-2012/">report Meeker delivered in May 2012</a>, and it&#8217;s got a ton of new information.</p>
<p>We&#8217;re still digesting the slides, but the slide above (#24 in Meeker&#8217;s deck) is a real standout. Echoing a similar <a href="http://www.asymco.com/2012/08/02/perspective-and-context-in-personal-computing/" target="_blank">graph of computer system sales from Horace Dediu at Asymco</a>, it shows the dramatic shift away from Windows-powered Intel machines (Wintel) in the past few years. Apple drove a wedge into the Wintel monopoly, but it&#8217;s Google&#8217;s Android OS that&#8217;s really eating Microsoft&#8217;s lunch. Since Q4 2010, combined shipments of tablets and smartphones have exceeded the number of PCs shipped, Meeker reports, and that trend shows no sign of reversing.</p>
<p>Other tidbits:</p>
<ul>
<li>Meeker&#8217;s data show 2.4 billion Internet users worldwide, a number that&#8217;s still growing eight percent yearly.</li>
<li>There are 1.1 billion smartphone subscribers worldwide &#8212; but that&#8217;s still just 17 percent of the global cellphone market.</li>
<li>29 percent of adults in the U.S. now own either a tablet or an e-reader.</li>
<li>Mobile devices now account for 13 percent of worldwide Internet traffic, up from 4 percent in 2010.</li>
<li>Mobile app and advertising revenue has grown at an annual rate of 129 percent since 2008, and now tops $19 billion.</li>
<li>Mobile traffic app Waze has been adding users faster than all GPS makers combined have sold personal navigation units, and it&#8217;s been that way since the beginning of 2012.</li>
</ul>
<p>Meeker&#8217;s presentation goes on to spell out how these device and connectivity trends are leading to the complete re-imagination of everything from encyclopedias to money itself. It&#8217;s a great presentation &#8212; you should definitely read it.</p>
