More "Go"ogle culture out in the wild. I've seen these at a few companies now. I'm a little surprised they're still called "go"-links, though I suppose the name works everywhere.
Especially because Golink seems to be (at least partially) written in Go

Big fan of Tailscale, yet I wonder whether it wouldn’t be better to make internal services securely available over the internet (zero trust rather than castle-and-moat). On the other hand, the former might be just to expensive for smaller organisations.
Is this a general thing? I thought it was specific to my former employer (F5). We used go/(foo) extensively and there was numerous hotlinks for all sorts of internal services as well as a pretty interesting interface to design your own. I had thought it was an internal service developed internally. It looks like our internal version was a lot better than this open source version, at least by the screenshots.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Huh. This is a thing I've seen at a few companies now and never seen reference to them coming out of Google. It makes sense, but it's also completely standalone - "go to the page."
A couple of the startups that do go links have blog posts on the history: https://www.golinks.com/blog/go-links-history/ https://www.trot.to/blog/2020/07/09/go-links-origin-story

It would also be pretty ironic if so, given that the idea was basically lifted from Google internal infra.
