Want to write open
source this summer?
Want to make money?
Want to do both?
Last year Google spent $3,000,000 to fund 630 student projects across 90 countries
with the help of over 100 mentoring organizations. Google Summer of CodeTM is back
again in 2007!
Google Summer of CodeTM is expressly designed to get the brightest minds on campus
contributing code to open source initiatives and inventing new open source programs.
After all, while altruistic motives are praiseworthy and the rewards of peer recognition
sweet, the idea of a financial prize for stellar work predates the Nobel Commission - and
who really needs money more than broke college students?
So here’s the skinny: we’ll give $4,500 to applicants who successfully work with a sponsoring
organization or advisor to create innovative or useful open source software.We’ll also get you
a t-shirt to go along with the cash.
Visit code.google.com/soc/ to learn more and submit your idea for a project.
The deadline for student applications is March 24, 2007.
