Simple web app to serve with go

  //maps the hosted file server to the route "/static/"
    http.Handle("/static/", fs)

  // moved the http handlers to a different package to keep the main clean.
  // also provided a way to pass arguments from main to handlers
    http.HandleFunc("/", handlers.Home(t))

    fmt.Println("Listening on 8000")
    fmt.Println(http.ListenAndServe(":8000", nil))
}

//Home .. handles "/" route

    // the properties of this message
