Crucial Intelligence: the latest Internet & Economy Trends by Morgan Stanley (via Web 2.0 summit)

Once again, great stuff by Mary Meeker and her Internet team at Morgan Stanley, via the Web2.0 summit. The video, embedded below, is good, too, but in my opinion it's the the slides that matter most: every single page packs a punch and makes you think. Great mix of facts, statistics and some key foresights. A must-read (and then... digest). Techcrunch has some great comments on this presentation, here.

There's hope: PWC: Global entertainment & media growth will leapfrog GDP during economic recovery

I have been digging through a lot of really great (and free;) reports from PWC (Price Waterhouse Coopers) today, including this one and most of these. 2 nuggets I want to share:

1) Entertainment and Media (E&M) spending will leap-frog the general economic recovery process and GDP growth

  2) Most of the E&M growth is in Mobile and Digital
