This is the first day of my journey into the programming language Go from Google (golang).
I have choosen Go to be the next language im going to learn because it is the best of two worlds: It is as fast as a compiled language, but feels like an interpreted one.

How to getting started with GoLang on Windows7 64bit:
Go to http://golang.org/dl and download the msi, then install it
Check if it has been installed correctly by starting a cmd shell and enter "go version", it should show something like this:
C:\>go version
go version go1.4.2 windows/amd64
The environment variable $GOROOT should have been created and $PATH should include $GOROOT\bin.
Type "set" to check if these variables are correct if "go version" gives you an error.
To display only one environment variable:
C:\>echo %GOROOT%
C:\Go\
and/or
C:\>echo %PATH%
<some_path_list>;C:\Go\bin;<some_other_pathes>
