Remember the days of rummaging through your parents junk draw, grabbing some paper towel holders, some Elmers glue and tin foil to build your science experiment?

Ah, those were the days.

Of course, today's science fairs are a bit more intricate and competitive. There are videos and tutorials to help the scientist in your build whatever you want.

For the second year in a row, Google is encouraging exploration with their Science Fair, an online science competition seeking curious minds from the four corners of the globe. Anybody and everybody between 13 and 18 can enter. All you need is an idea.

From the Google Science Fair website, "Geniuses are not always A grade students. We welcome all mavericks, square-pegs and everybody who likes to ask questions. Simply upload your project here to win some life changing prizes."

The Google Science Fair 2012 is in partnership with CERN, Lego, National Geographic and Scientific American. According to Google, it's the largest global online science competition, that celebrates the curiosity and investigations of young scientists everywhere! If you're 13 to 18 years old, submit an entry by April 1st 2012 for your chance to win prizes.
