This is very cyclical. We're in the honeymoon period with some of these technologies. Two years ago you saw a lot of posts proclaiming that NodeJS and MongoDB were fantastic, world changing technologies.

Now you see a lot of posts saying "We're switching from MongoDB to Postgres/Riak because of X, Y, and Z". I suspect we'll start seeing similar posts about Node.js very soon.

No telling what will happen with Go, but just enjoy the honeymoon period for what it is and stay tuned to find out what happens later.
