R help - Jan 2012 - Interactive map graphics.

I just watched

 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iSXNfZESR5I

 

and there is a section where Hadley Wickham showed demonstrated a county map
of the US that was interactive.  This is exactly what I would like. I have
downloaded ggplot2 but still failed to find out how to even read in and plot
something like a US map let alone add the kind of interactivity that was
shown in this demo. Anyone else succeed at interacting with a plot of the US
like this?

 

Thank you.
