Anyone in the digital world who hasn’t read something about Mary Meeker’s 2015 Internet Trends report might actually be living under a rock. Every year, the industry anxiously awaits the mega report packed with mega trends — and once it hits, there’s an onslaught of brands and thought-leaders jockeying to be first to the feed, with tweets and posts regurgitating Meeker’s content. But when the dust settles, what matters most is how the behemoth presentation is interpreted to reveal perspectives on what the report REALLY means for businesses.

We already shared some of our thoughts about the report in this post from our Founder, Neil Capel, but there are a ton more we’ve been paying attention to.
