R and Google Visualization API

R interfaces with the powerful Google Visualization API with the package googleVis (see here). It's relatively easy to convert your graphics in R to interactive graphics to post on a web browser. And the graphics are quite nice, as seen below in a simple graph of some of my data collected from this summer on seed predation to Helianthus annuus seeds in Texas:



Data: data2, Chart ID: MotionChart_2011-01-08-19-31-57

  3. Hi Carterson2,

    Sure. What do you have in mind? Do you have data you can send to me?

  4. Heya! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any issues with hackers? My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing many months of hard work due to no backup. Do you have any methods to protect against hackers?
