Ggplotly: Make ggplot2 graphs into shareable D3 graphs
========================================================

[Ggplotly](https://github.com/ropensci/plotly) and [Plotly's R API](https://plot.ly/api/r) let you make ggplots, add `py$ggplotly()`, and get an interactive, shareable, online plot. Your plots are even drawn with D3. Let's make one, and then jump into why these technologies are special. 

You can copy and paste these examples straight into your R environment and make the first graph in about 26 seconds (let me know if you find otherwise).

First up we'll show a histogram from <a href = "http://www.alexharrisonparker.com/">Alex Parker</a>. The graph shows the number of Google results for the word "space" with different numbers of a's. 55 and 96 are popular, with Google showing 2,970 results for space spelled with 96 a's.  If you hover your mouse over a point or click and drag to zoom in, you can learn more.
