ArsDigita Foundation Encourages Top Teen-Age Website Developers
$10,000 Prize to Commercial-free, Informative Site
CAMBRIDGE, MA — February 10, 2000 (INB) -- The next
generation of website developers are finding inspiration,
encouragement—as well as some financing—from the folks at
the ArsDigita Foundation <http://www.arsdigita.org>, which
sponsors an annual competition for teenage programmers. The
only hitch is the sites have to be useful to a community of
people, have no advertisements, and must distribute their
source code on their sites so that other programmers can
build on their work.
