Go...

[Doon]

I know it is Ruby, but it is pretty neat :)

Check out the Tech Talk on Go, since it is really neat to Watch Rob
Pike (of Unix, Plan9, Inferno fame..) Talking about it.

Pretty neat stuff in a nerdy way.

Oh and mark, Sorry it isn't really Object Oriented, you can have types
and methods make it feel OO, but no Type Hierarchy..

Finally watched the presentation. It's pretty damned cool. Cooler than
I thought at first. My only outstanding question of any substance is
if it supports multiple dispatch ala CLOS in Lisp. If it does that
would be very cool, because when you need multiple dispatch the only
good language is Lisp.

I haven’t used Go yet, but I thought the idea of it was pretty interesting so I checked out the homepage and read a few articles about it. There are some things I found interesting, although overall I found it somewhat lackluster as a language. I found this post <http://monoc.mo.funpic.de/go-rant/> called “Why Google’s Go is a Bore” that might be interesting for others who have been taking a look at Go.
