Go The programming language

It seems Google is doing everything under this sun. From search engine, mobile OS, browser, and other several products, now its the Go programming language. I can’t wait to see them reveal a teleport system, that way I don’t have to ride about 218km to get to the Western region.

Go is a system programming language  like C and C++ but with new features and eliminations of the short comings of C and C++.  Go is designed to be extremely fast and avoids some of the complexities in writing software( like C is :-) ). Its an open source project aiming to have a community to contribute to make it even more powerful.

It is optimized for massive scaling and for multi-core processors that handle many tasks in parallel. It has a strong focus on object oriented principles. The project looks bright. However, Francis McCabe who has been working on a programming language also called Go is seriously begging Google to change the name of their programming language Go. I wonder how such a big company couldn’t do their homework well.
