Create a Community on Google Plus #140

I created a community on Google Plus. The idea is to provide a place for easy discussion and sharing of posts related to rCharts. I need to think a little bit more about how best to use it before I publicize it.

@reinholdsson, @timelyportfolio chime in with suggestions. We can use this issue to discuss potential features.

Great! I am not that familiar with Google+, but I will definitely have a look. I think this is a great idea for sharing/discussing visualisations, also to reach out to many of rCharts' potential users that aren't on sites such as Github or Google Groups.

Yes. I like the minimalistic interface of Google Plus, and it provides a nice way to share interactive visualizations. I am thinking it could be used for more than just rCharts, helping showcase any interactive viz. created with R. Over the next couple of days, I will write up a short intro to the community, populate it with a few interesting viz we have created and then invite people from the rstats and dataviz community to join.
