It's a minimilist, practical language that picks a set of features much different than most popular languages today. I wouldn't pick it for code golf or a programming competitions, but as someone who's been programming for a long time and haa come to value the ability to make clean, simple code that doesn't break (eslecially in weird ways at bad times), I really enjoy Go and think it actually is a really good, if in certain respects unambitious, language.
