> the recent storm of Go articles
Maybe an insider could shed some light on this campaign. Does Google marketing dedicate people to cater for social networking sites and news aggregators? How is the 'storm' organized? Obviously, many startups try to spread the word through 'cheap' channels. Only few are really successful.
- eridius 13y agoI don't think this is organized by Google. I think it's just a natural consequence of more people checking out and using Go for production work. For what it's worth, outside of the FAQ, I don't think golang.org even mentions Google. In general, Go is kept very distinct from Google, so it wouldn't make much sense for Google to embark on a Go marketing campaign.
- voidlogic 13y agoYou do realize that Go is an open-source project with contributors from both inside and outside of Google? I imagine more user's outside of Google use Go than inside.
