As a computer graphics junkie, I'm very excited about the TV graphics unveiled tonight. So far:
Since it's hard to see every trick on every station, I invite other KR viewers to share their cool graphics findings tonight. Thanks!
* Tomograms capture an image in 3D and then project an illusion of three dimensions. The technical feat was that CNN's tomogram was processed in real-time.

- NBC virtual graphs rise out of the floor in front of Ann Curry
- CNN deputes a total Princess Leah [strike]hologram[/strike] tomogram*. Live, w/ 35 HD cameras in a tent, the newswoman in Chicago shows up on stage with Wolf Blitzer. Very slick.

The hologram was cool, but Wolf Blitzer was a complete toolbag for actually telling viewers that the reporter wasn't there in the studio.
Like, no shit Wolf, we thought everyone at CNN was surrounded by a holy, white nimbus...

At the eleventh hour, Alex gave up PCing for the event when James needed help running the weekend. From writing last minute encounters to helping run main mod, he was an incredible help to James all event. Thanks for your hard work and dedication. A special mention also for Tom & Keath who were a huge help as well.
