That's a pretty cool idea, at a base, create something useful and force yourself to look through the standard library. I am learning GO right now and I am blown away with what comes out of the box.

Me too! I was shocked to have my Go url shortener come in several lines shorter than node.js one, and it felt much cleaner. I was pretty much sold at that point.
