I don't think Go is in the same space.  It has a quite weak type system
and (for better or worse) is GC'd.  If you want GC, weak types, and
concurrency, try Erlang.  If you want GC, strong types, and concurrency,
try Haskell.  

I liked this old comparison about Go:  http://cowlark.com/2009-11-15-go/
