The main reason to adopt go is its concurrency model. Go uses a concept of Green Threads which it calls goroutines. These goroutines lets you perform blocking calls (like network operations) without having to block the underlying OS thread! Greatly simplifies concurrency in a multi-threaded environment.

It would be really nice if you could mention that as well.
