"Go is influenced by C (especially the Plan 9 dialect[46][failed verification – see discussion]), but with an emphasis on greater simplicity and safety."
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Go_(prog

" The creators got motivated by the shared dislikes other engineers and developers showed towards C++. Go language perfectly solves and addresses these problems. "

"Go's mascot is a gopher (above) designed by Renée French, who also designed Glenda, the Plan 9 Bunny. The mascot is based on one French had previously drawn for a WFMU fundraiser t-shirt. The logo and mascot are licensed under Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 license. "
