Hey Everyone,

I followed the directions on how to create web applications using Go, and I was able to get an application working great.

One thing I am confused about though is, when you run the application (./8.out), the terminal will sit there and listen on port 8080 until somebody accesses a page.

Does the terminal need to stay up all of the time to run the web application? Does the application act like apache? Does apache need to be run next to this app? Setting this up on a server environment seems very confusing to me right now because I dont understand what the best way to do this is.

Thanks for any help on this,
Metropolis
