Also did you send your CV to places that work on free software? I remember reading recently about how nice it was to work with Mozilla for your internship.
I haven't consider doing so. I just looked up on Mozilla website, but they are only looking for students with web knowledge. I also visited Free Software Foundation's internship, but they only have unpaid internship. I am so desperate that I am considering this option, but my family would not be able to let me do this. Their HQ is in Boston.
