At the end of the Galileo mission in September 2003, and approximately three years after the Cassini Jovian flyby, it is an appropriate time to reflect on the recent advances made in Io science. Data have been analyzed and volcanic processes have begun to be quantified. This paper reviews these advances from a purely volcano-logical perspective, looking at particular volcanos of interest, and comparing styles of ionian activity with those seen on Earth.
