The report highlights key events and recent trends in the digital space. To mirror the collaborative spirit of the initiative, we compile---based on an open invitation to the members of the extended Berkman community---nearly two dozen short essays from friends, colleagues, and collaborators in the United States and abroad. The result is intended for a general interest audience and invites reflection and discussion of the past year's notable events and trends in the digitally networked environment. Our goal is not to describe the "state of the Internet" in any definitive way, but rather to highlight and discuss some of the most fascinating developments and debates over the past year worthy of broader public conversation. Our contributors canvass a broad range of topics and regions---from a critique of India's Unique Identity project to a review of corporate transparency reporting to a first-person report from the Gezi Park protests. A common thread explores how actors within government, industry, and civil society are wrestling with the changing power dynamics of the digital realm. *An interactive, full text version of the report is available on H2O <http://h2o.law.harvard.edu/>, where you can remix, share, excerpt, and comment on each essay: H2O: Internet Monitor 2013 <http://h2o.law.harvard.edu/playlists/5125>.* *The full report and individual chapters are also available for download from the Internet Monitor website <http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/internetmonitor/annual-report/>.*
