This is an old media presentation of something inherently interactive -- Alan Kay complains about how the wikipedia pages' code examples aren't executable. There is already the well-developed http://tour.golang.org/, which can be used freely.
I really liked the Go Tour, which I checked out 3 weeks ago. Then I was a bit disappointed to see that the UI changed some, making it less user-friendly. (Everything used to fit on one page, except for longer examples, for instance.) Still like it overall, though.
That tour looks like a worthy introduction, and yet I for one appreciate the old media approach here. It's nice to keep tutorial in one window, code in another, and build the examples on my own system as I would a real application.
The tour has the unfortunate property of being both a top result for many golang searches and not being deep-linkable. I welcome additional introductory material.
