Google Failed To Google First Before Naming Their New Programming Language

Just days after releasing its new “Go” programming language, Google is getting much flak for using the same name as another programming language by Francis McCabe and Keith Clark. McCabe: “I do not have a trademark on my language. It was intended as a somewhat non-commercial language in the tradition of logic programming languages. It is in the tradition of languages like Prolog. In particular, my motivation was bringing some of the discipline of software engineering to logic programming.”
