On May 3rd of 2012 the Google+ extension http://tinyurl.com/VisibleData of this Data Visualization blog reached 500+ followers, on July 9 it got 1000+ users, on October 11 (just 2 weeks ago) it had already 2000+ users and today my G+ Data Visualization Page has 2190+ followers and still growing with average speed of 10 new followers every day (updated as of 12/01/12: 2500+ followers):
One of reasons of course is just a popularity of Data Visualization related topics and other reason covered in interesting article here:
