I've wanted this for a very long time. I'm in search of a summer internship, so I've been hoping for a way for potential employers to quickly see what I've been working on. Not just my own projects, but also my pull requests to other projects.

Thumbs up for GitHub, this is a welcomed feature. Very attractive, too.

Indeed. It used to be that the only way to glean such information (for an arbitrary user) would be to crawl all the projects and sift through the data yourself.

I'm hoping that they make this info available through the API, and allow us to see contributions over all time, instead of just in the last year / month.

Even more so. The majority of my work is in organizations. Before it was difficult to see what I was doing. Unless someone is really interested in my emacs settings.
