Google is handing out $4500 stipends to select college students who decide to spend their summer contributing to various open-source software projects. Among the 150 open-source projects that Google has included in the program is NetSurf, a Web browser led by a team in England, which will compete with Google's own 'Chrome' browser. Since its inception in 2005, the program has brought together nearly 2500 successful student participants and 2500 mentors from 98 countries worldwide, all for the love of code. The company plans to spend $5 million on the project this year and is now accepting applications.
