+talk on Thursday at 10.15am.
+This session takes a detailed look at how Go differs from other languages
+in a practical sense.
+Through a series of examples, they will demonstrate various features of
+Go and the ways in which they affect program design.

+Several members of the Go team will be at the Go cube during Office Hours
+on Wednesday between 12pm and 2:30pm.
+Come by to have your Go questions answered by the experts.
+
+At Bootcamp on Tuesday at 4.15pm, Andrew Gerrand will be giving an introductory talk about Go.
+The session will give an overview of the problems that motivated us to build a new language,
+and the ways in which Go addresses those problems.
