The Winter Olympics — a magical fortnight of sports, international truce, and athletic accomplishment (unless you’re an Olympics grinch, of which we might have one lurking around the OnSight office). With an event that has such international interest, and which has a long and proud history, it’s fun to trace the graphical representations of the Olympics, present and past. Here are few great links.
