Just went to Google to see if I could find anything relating to this possibility, and was immediately reminded how annoying it is, with respect to search, that they named the language "Go".

They managed to optimize their golang.org homepage to get the position #5 on the word "go".

They must be good at SEO.

BTW the video I mentioned is at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-i0hat7pdpk&feature=playe...

Well, they own the crawler and the index, they will know, what to do...
It's not that funny any more if you have to explain it ;)
I think everybody should just call it "golang"
It helps to include the words "lang" or "language" in the search. Kinda frustrating.
There is a "Custom Search Engine" for Go: http://go-lang.cat-v.org/go-search
