Mary Meeker, a partner at Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers and former Internet analyst, released her latest report on Internet Trends at the recently concluded D10 Conference. Here are some highlights from the report: - India has added 69 million Internet users during 2008-2011 and now has 121 million Internet users with a population penetration rate of 10%, recording a 38% YoY growth.

Globally there are 2.25 billion Internet users with a population penetration rate of 32% and 663 million Internet users were added during 2008-2011 recording a 8% YoY growth. - India has 39 million 3G subscriptions as of Q4 2011 with 4% penetration rate and 841% YoY growth.
