A Go “clone” of the great and famous Requests library

Very poorly named given Requests has a branch using Gevent that's already called grequests. https://github.com/kennethreitz/grequests

I didn't even notice that part, very true. I think it should probably be gorequests. Sounds better than grequests anyways.

I agree, gorequests is the obvious choice, and changing the name before it becomes too popular would be a good idea.

sounds like a great FPS title from the mid-90's. GoreQuests, Rated M for Mature.

There are so many packages with "go" in the name. Why not be a little more creative and avoid that? I don't put the word Go in any of my package names and it's been fun.

Yeah, I definitely just reread that post and realized what it said. Maybe go-requests or something...

I am not very good at naming things and figured to just slap a 'g' on requests => grequests.

I figured that I would write the code and decide on a name later...

I'd say goquests to avoid the gore quests issue, just like coroutines => goroutines

And it has a nice implication that you send your app on a quest through HTTP land :)
