This week in Viz is a special episode covering everything about the exciting cloud gaming product from OnLive. OnLive was kind enough to send me a review unit and an account, and I put both the hardware unit and their software offering through the paces on some Duke Nukem Forever and F3AR, and the results are simply amazing.

Topics in this episode:
Stamen Design is the talk of the geospatial design world. Each offering is smart: minimalist yet visually pleasing, multi-variate and ready for analysis.

Tufte, or ET as he prefers it, possesses an invaluable combination of talents that he draws from and to our collective benefit as visualization workers: an eye for art, thorough knowledge of content, design prowess, discipline, a desire to share and the energy for successive public speaking engagements in which he preaches his gospel. I met up with ET after one such lecture in Cincinnati on August 25th, at which time he was kind enough to participate in an audio interview that sits at the end of this post.
