There's a lot of server side programming for which Go probably wouldn't be the ideal language. Room for more than 2 languages in the world I think :)

Like what? Go is an absolutely excellent language for server-side programming. I've yet to find anything it wasn't suited for.

There's room, I just don't get why Google would promote two of its own very similar languages for the same purpose at the same time.

What do you mean by "server side programming"? That's a pretty wide net to cast. Do you really think that Go is the ideal language for every bit of code that doesn't happen to run on a client of some sort?
