Do You Outsource Your IT?
The popular social media website Digg was conceptualized by Kevin Rose and was actually created through a proposal on elance.com.
Many more companies now are looking to outsource their IT and internet marketing to India and other developing countries to try and save on costs.
DoubtSourcing.com is a weekly (and weakly funny) comic about IT outsourcing, written by Sandeep Sood. I came across this one recently and had to share it with you! If you’ve ever tried outsourcing your IT work you’ll find it funny:

Sandeep is really on to something. Outsourcing to ’software sweatshops’ is all too common.
Outsourcing is about high value, not low cost.

The fact is, you’ll get good and bad outsourcing results both offshore and also locally.
Here’s an interesting article about that:

Whether you use local, national or offshore help, you need to try out a lot of people before you find the quality talent.
Cheers,
