This article contnues previous discussions about OnLive and the implications for VR grids :

• Future of SL is beyond e-tech. Now on to s-tech
• Future of SL Beyond e-tech (continued)
• VR in the Cloud

Start with two more concepts:  Hypergrid and Mixagrid

Hypergrid

From the Wiki: "The hypergrid is an extension to opensim that allows you to link your opensim to other opensims on the internet, and that supports seamless agent transfers among those opensims. It can be used both in standalone mode and in grid mode. The hypergrid is effectively supporting the emergence of a Web of virtual worlds. "

We are working on installing the new stable version of OpenSim 0.61 starting next week. Once it is up and running we will have the new Hypergrid functionality online allowing visitors to hit our grid more easily.  It is a step toward the 3D-Web Future for sure.
