Hello IIT gadget developers!

I'm an engineer on the Google Desktop team and have worked closely with Lahiru over the past few years.

My favorite result of the Google Desktop Ambassador program has been seeing the work of students from all over the world. We have active ambassadors in Romania, Indonesia, and Pakistan who have successfully held contests and seminars.

I am happy to see this contest at IIT has gone underway. As Lahiru could tell you, gadgets give you a chance to write real applications that millions of people can enjoy. It also is a good way to improve your programming skills and a chance to enter our Hall of Fame.

We look forward to your entries and please visit us on our developer group if you have any questions.

Cheers!
James
