I am pleased to announce the official launch of the Google Developer Group GDG Gigcity, the group can also be found on meetup. This group is open to anyone in the Chattanooga Tennessee area, our meetings will always be free for anyone to attend. To help start things off and get the word out, there has also been a Go lang T-shirt designed by Charles Fannin. Even though the shirt was designed by Charles nether he or I make any money off of any sales, it was just something cool done in his spare time, and I am promoting because who doesn’t want their own custom shirts?
Blog rewrite, this time in Go! Some time after re-launching my website, which was a complete rewrite from Perl to Go, and now the blog piece is getting the same treatment. I have been writing in Go for three years now, and in that time there have been a lot of great write ups about other services that are either being developed in or rewritten in Go which to someone like me this is always good news.
