I do actually. Google isn't a company I'm to happy about these days, but I do like that they're spending at least some of the money earned from the advertising business on funding projects like Go.
Go isn't a language I've used in production, but it's something I'm playing around with. I really like the standard library, there's a few thing ( like variable assignment ) that just wrong, but overall it's really a fun language.
The main feature I really really want to make use of is the statically compiled binaries. Deployment just becomes so much easier compared to pretty much anything.
Don't be deceived by your hate towards any specific company, otherwise you will miss a lot of beautiful, useful, adorable things in this world.
