Google's new http://golang.org/ .

Now some people will go a head with and opportunities will open for this. I don't why these all big guys come up together in a solution on web standards and fix their **** browsers so that developers life and time can be saved.

Sorry but where does this site mention that this programming language is developed by Google? I don't see any references on the website.

Go is a new language. Although it borrows ideas from existing languages, it has unusual properties that make effective

Nothing new really, if anything probably it simplifies coding a bit but that's about it.

Also, the domain is owned by google.

Just what we need another programming language. Not like we don't have enough already.

still c++ is much more faster then go lang . :) . well let see whats google next move .

It took me a bit to realize the Google part of it, though. I wonder if Google wanted it to remain somewhat vague (not necessarily overly so, though).

On slashdot last week...http://developers.slashdot.org/story/09/11/11/0210212/Go-Googles-New-Open-Source-Programming-Language?from=rss

An interesting comparison between Go and "Brand X" (read through to the end).

An early performance comparison between the "stackless" version of Python and Go:

No doubt Go will become important over time, particularly at Google, but I don't see it changing my life anytime soon. I've already done my time with C, managed to avoid C++, and for a variety of reasons am not interested in C#. If I were to cast my eyes about it might well be to Haskell.

For the work I do a byte-compiled language like Python is more than able, and I believe we'll see in the not distant future significant improvements in execution speed from Python (and certain other dynamic languages). pypy, jit compilers, jython (python on java), Google's own "Unladen Swallow" project (working at significant performance increases to merge back into Python trunk) - with all these eyeballs working away at it, my tool of choice just keeps getting faster.

C Will be always there, i doubt people have enough time to play with GO... may be new comers and younger generation would adopt.

Well, Good Luck to Google :)
Its really amazing, I mean, Google is encroaching in every possible field :)

Is the Google programming? Go fro Google?

In the faq it says

"What is the origin of the name?

“Ogle” would be a good name for a Go debugger."


Go+Ogle

Why do they hide the fact they are Google? And not put this on usual Google domains?

Also, its a Forbidden page for me. does any one know why ?

Java, C++ are the best i think

Thanks for sharing.... Looks cool :)

let see whats google next move , Java, C++ are the best i think

Wow at this rate there would be no time for writing apps.:D

What good is it supposed to do to us?

I'm gonna wait for the LOLCODE full stable release :)
