Ask HN: Google intern pool (input from Googlers appreciated)

[v3rt]

Hi all, I'm a first-year at the University of Chicago still searching for a summer internship in software or robotics, and I'm in the interesting position of having been accepted to an internship so far only at Google. As I understand, I'm now in the unfortunate situation of being stuck in the intern "pool" until someone fishes me out, unless I track down someone at Google who's looking for an intern for the summer myself. So, would anyone, especially Googlers/ex-Googlers, have any input on where to best go from here? I'm trying to land a position in the Mountain View Googleplex for the summer, but I'm hesitant to leave the team matching process to chance. Thanks!
