Google has announced a contest to promote open-source software development for high school students. This shows Google's great support for open-source platforms. I think Google is smart because their open-source path will make it so that anyone that can get to their service no matter what platform they are on. This contest will also help for the future of open-source by getting young people involved.
I think this is a great idea for Google and youth. Youth are the most open-minded and often view problems in completely different ways. This is a great way to get support for open source software while allowing young intelligent minds to help in its development.
