Hacking Contest by Google, Code Jam 2012

Get seated, ready, steady.. GO. There is another annual hacking cup coming. I already pointed to the Facebook Hacker Cup a few days ago. Now it is time to announce that also Google is doing it’s annual contest in 2012.

Google Code Jam 2012

The first round starts in March 2012, so maybe you already want to lock the door for practicing.

Last year over 30,000 coders competed, be the 30,001 hacker that gets the almighty title of Code Jam Champion, and a hefty $10,000 reward.

“The competition consists of four online rounds, culminating in the world finals. This year, the final round will be held at Google’s office in Paris, France.

So stretch out your wrists, get that kink out of your neck, and prepare to let your fingers fly. Registration opens on Tuesday, March 13th, 2012.” (code jam homepage today)
