That question to too general to be answered in a meaningful way. For instance, one could say that Go is better than Java because its name can be typed faster.

Was it so? News to me. Of late, I have been seeing/hearing so many languages like fan, haskell, erlang, and recently today 'go'! huh...

Is there really a Guava yet? I've been using Google Collections, and love them, and they are the first major part of Guava, but so far, the site you link to is short on things like .jar files to download, javadocs, etc.

On the other hand, Google's Go is predated by the unrelated languauge Go! by Francis McCabe. As a result, Google may end up changing the name to something else. So maybe the framework designers should hold off a bit on choosing a name.

Why such a strange and backward syntax?

For example, the way variables are declared with var name type;. Why did they have to invent this backward syntax with first the name, and then the type, separated by a space - exactly the other way around from C, and unlike any other programming language? Or the way you declare an array:
Why such a strange and backward syntax? You'd think that it would be smart to re-use the familiar syntax of the existing major languages (C, C++, Java, C# etc.) so that it will be easier to learn for most programmers. It almost looks like they were deliberately stubborn and wanted to be unique for no good reason.
We'll see if it ever becomes a success. There is a lot of hype, but that's only because it comes from The Big Almighty Google. It will have to prove itself in practice.

Who knows? who cares?
a lot of languages have a ton of syntactic sugar that just appeals to programmers in the first 15 minutes. Bliss used "begin" and "end' rather than braces.
In a bit of real use, the syntax loses all importance.
I stopped caring about syntax about 20 languages ago.

20 languages ago? Don't quite get you here.
