Never used it, though. Seems to be well established in certain circles 
(data analysis, statistics and more).
R is powerful, but likely best if you plan to do statistics and data processing rather than infoviz. There are apparently nice graphics libraries, but the learning curve is steep.
Look at http://d3js.org/ and http://www.jasondavies.com/ for some awesome things that can be done in javascript with the right library. 
Hmm, http://www.processing.org/ is actually great for visualisation, http://www.openprocessing.org/collection/1122 but requires java - which is a bit of the Sick Man of the Internet right now.
