Hello everyone, As some may know, today Google unveiled its 2001 search index [1]. I was curious to see how was R like at that time, and was not disappointed. Compared to today's main page [2], seven years ago the page looked [3] a bit rudimentary, especially the graphic. (It is wort noting that structurally the pages are very similar.) What definitely changed is the `Contributed packages' section. Then R featured 29 contributed packages [4], while now it features 1500+ [5]. It was surprising to realize the growth of R during the past seven years.
