Today marks the launch of the third Google Code-in, an international contest introducing 13-17 year old pre-university students to the world of open source software development. The goal of the contest is to give students the opportunity to explore the many types of projects and tasks involved in open source software development. Globally, open source software development is becoming a major factor in all industries from governments, healthcare, and relief efforts to gaming and large tech companies.

When you hear the term “open source” do you ask yourself:

  • What exactly is open source?  
  • How can I get involved in open source software development if I’m just starting to learn how to code?
  • What types of work do open source projects do?  
  • I’d like to work on open source but I’m not really a coder, what else can I do?
  • I’ve never worked on a global project using IRC and chat groups: can someone help me?

If you’ve wondered about any of these questions and are a pre-university student (age 13-17) then you should join in on the fun with the Google Code-in contest starting November 26, 2012.

From late November to mid January, students will be able to work with 10 open source projects on a variety of tasks. These projects have all successfully served as mentoring organizations working with university students in our Google Summer of Code program.

The types of tasks students will be working on will fall into the following categories:

  1. Code: Tasks related to writing or refactoring code
  2. Documentation/Training: Tasks related to creating/editing documents and helping others learn more
  3. Outreach/research: Tasks related to community management, outreach/marketing, or studying problems and recommending solutions
  4. Quality Assurance: Tasks related to testing and ensuring code is of high quality
  5. User Interface: Tasks related to user experience research or user interface design and interaction

Over the last two years we have had 904 students compete in the contest from 65 countries. This past January we announced the 10 Grand Prize Winners for the 2011 Google Code-in. In June, we flew the winners and a parent/legal guardian to Google’s Mountain View, California headquarters for a 5 day/4 night trip complete with an awards ceremony, talks with Google engineers, Google campus tour, and a full day of fun in San Francisco.

Visit the Frequently Asked Questions page on the Google Code-in site for more details on how to sign up and participate. Please help us spread the word to your friends around the globe. If you are a teacher who would like to encourage your students to participate, please send an email to our team at ospoteam@gmail.com. We would be happy to answer any questions you may have.

Stay tuned to the contest site and subscribe to our mailing list for more updates on the contest. We will announce the 10 open source organizations that will be participating in the contest on November 12. The Google Code-in contest starts on November 26, 2012, and we look forward to welcoming hundreds of students from around the world into the open source family.

T.V. Raman is a Research Scientist at Google who knows a thing or two about accessibility. We took the opportunity to interview him, and Hubbell, his seeing-eye dog (who was nice and quiet).

We started out by asking the honest question that developers ask about accessibility: "What is in it for me?". T.V. discusses the practical issues, and what you should be doing with respect to accessibility, and how it is one piece of the usability picture.

We then delve into the problems of developing accessible websites, and solutions to some of the problems.

If you listen to the interview you will learn:
  • How not to develop in a user-agent specific manner
  • Fun issues with screen readers
  • How audio CAPTCHA brings equality to the pain of CAPTCHA, and how people who can see use the audio ones
  • How painful is the Web to view for a blind person
  • Using the Google Web Transcoder (the other GWT!) to clean up pages
  • How CSS hasn't been as leveraged as much as we would like
  • How the increase in mobile and widget platforms has a side effect of accessible views
  • How RIA applications deal with accessibility
  • How T.V. has written custom clients for Google APIs
  • What standards groups are doing in the accessibility space
  • Dealing with Python, a language that cares about whitespace, as a blind man.

One of the most crucial steps in any affiliate marketing business is finding and promoting the best affiliate marketing programs and products.

In an affiliate marketing program, a publisher receives a commission for generating a transaction, such as a lead or sale, for an advertiser that the publisher is promoting. The advertiser provides its ads to publishers and assigns a commission for each action it wants to accomplish.

Publishers place the tracking code for these ads on their Web sites, in their email campaigns, or in search listings. Whenever a visitor uses these links to generate an action on the advertiser site, that transaction is tracked online. If a product or service is purchased, the customer pays the advertiser directly, and the publisher is paid a commission for that transaction.

Provide the affiliate program site as follows:

1. Clickbank

Clickbank is our first choice simply because of its great marketplace with thousands of attractive information products and commissions up to 75%. It has great tracking, commissions are paid every 2 weeks and you can easily see which products sell the most.

2. MarketHealth

MarketHealth, established in 1998,  is now the world's largest integrated online marketing company in the health and beauty industry. It has been our experience that most of MarketHealth's products are in very high demand and we are continually earning great commissions with them. MarketHealth.Com has all the great feature an affiliate program of its size should have and they have thousands of happy affiliates to prove it.

3. SellHealth

Right next to MarketHealth, SellHealth.Com has amazing offers and products that convert extremely well. Their commissions are very generous and there are even contests and bonus cash for high achievers. We recommend them to anyone looking to promote products related to health, weight loss and beauty.

4. Commission Junction

According to Wikipedia, Commission Junction is the largest affiliate network in North America, powering 53% of the top 500 web retailers affiliate marketing programs and operates worldwide. We have had good experiences with CJ and we recommend it, but we suggest new marketers to stick with ClickBank or PayDotCom

5. PayDotCom

PayDotCom has a great marketplace with a lot of quality products to promote and is heavily integrated with PayPal. Commission go as high up as 80%.

We will be updating this list with more programs, but for now we would like to recommend only these 5 programs as they have been tested and proven to convert and earn commissions.
