Cool! Go is getting some attention. Project looks very neat.

I just released an alpha project for the Raspberry pi using Go for controlling your sprinklers.

Shameless plug: https://github.com/pothibo/irrigation

Sweet!

But make it go-gettable, dammit. :-) [1]

Also, is there anything I could read that would explain how I'd hook up my RPi to my sprinkler system? Thanks!

Didn't see your question. opensprinkler.com seems like a verygood solution. I found it after starting working on my project so I bought a sainsmart 5v relay controller. Doing it again, I would probably buy opensprinkler for Pi

Excellent. Thanks very much for the thread. I'll pull on it soon, hopefully.

Thanks for posting this too-- I'm trying to learn Go and it's always good to see "full" examples rather than just snippets of code.

Sounds like an awesome project! I'd definitely use this. Makes me want to order a Pi :)
