Go\u2019s official mascot is Gordon the gopher, seen here.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s how Google describes Go in its blog post:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p> Go attempts to combine the development speed of working in a dynamic language like Python with the performance and safety of a compiled language like C or C++. In our experiments with Go to date, typical builds feel instantaneous; even large binaries compile in just a few seconds. And the compiled code runs close to the speed of C. Go is designed to let you move fast.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re hoping Go turns out to be a great language for systems programming with support for multi-processing and a fresh and lightweight take on object-oriented design, with some cool features like true closures and reflection.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>For more details check out <a href=\"http:\/\/golang.org\/\">Golang.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Technorati Tags: <a class=\"performancingtags\" href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/google\" rel=\"tag\">google<\/a>, <a class=\"performancingtags\" href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/go\" rel=\"tag\">go<\/a>, <a class=\"performancingtags\" href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/programming\" rel=\"tag\">programming<\/a>, <a class=\"performancingtags\" href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/language\" rel=\"tag\">language<\/a>, <a class=\"performancingtags\" href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/phython\" rel=\"tag\">phython<\/a>, <a class=\"performancingtags\" href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/c++\" rel=\"tag\">c++<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So Phython, C and C++ are not good enough for Google anymore.
