Hi All,

Web and Coding Club is organizing a talk on How to get into Google Summer of Code 2k13.

GSoC  is a program in which you get to work on a project for another existing open-source project.You might get a chance to work on improving some part of Mozilla Firefox or even your favorite python libraries! GSoC is organised and sponsored by Google.Students from all over the world can apply for contributing in open source projects in GSOC. Students in turn get cash reward of 5000 USD , a participating certificate from Google and an awesome tshirt.

Since many students apply worldwide, almost from 100 countries, its not that easy to get through into GSOC. Lets hear some ideas and insider details from Parath Shah. He has participated in GSoC and conducted a similar talk last year!
This talk will be very beneficial to all those who are planning to apply for GSOC-2k13 as well as all those who are planning to apply in upcoming years.
