Google's Go

Well, Google is out with it's Go language.
There are hell lotta blogs on this but still I thought of scribbling my thoughts on Go..
The question is, will Go be the next choice of system programmers?
Is it really a language worth much hype? "Google's language" after all..
That too with lotta geniuses like Ken Thomson behind it..

I really couldn't find much similarity between Go and Python..[They say go = python + c]
They claim it to be simple.. mabbe for existing C++ programmers..yea, Go might be perfect for existing C++ programmers to migrate..since keeps a hold on pointers and performs garbage collection and stuff..

And why is google bringing out a systems programming language when they themselves are into development of the "web OS", Chrome OS ?
