This post shares the video from the talk presented in September 2013 by Johann de Boer on accessing Google Analytics using R at Melbourne R Users.
In this presentation Johann will share his experience in creating his first open-source R package, ganalytics, used for accessing Google Analytics data. Reflecting on his journey to date in learning R, Johann will give tips to newcomers in helping them succeed in using R for their day to day work and in creating their own packages. A demonstration of ganalytics will follow with an invitation to the community to get involved in its future development.
