Django Aware: Outsourcing Revisited And No One Is Safe

    Well, I for one thought the article was fine, don't think you needed to add much.

    However, what's wrong with referencing Quality? I work for one of the largest outsourcers in USA and no one even thinks for a minute that the quality is the same between USA and India or China, get real?

    There is a reason the tech revolution started in the USA, and most of the best tech companies are here. Let's not kid ourselves.

    Depends on what you need. If you want to outsource writing content or tech support, sure the US based companies are the best. If you want to outsource building your website or some design stuff I think you might find some offshore companies better (and cheaper) for the job.

    Ruby On Rails (not Rails) should read Ruby On Rails (not Ruby). I would hate for someone to get confused, especially if you are targeting someone who would mix up PHP and Cake.

    I agree with John - you shouldn't compare different nationalities. It's obvious that American ones are usualy a lot better. However this still doesn't change the fact that outsourcing is pretty risky. 2 most commons reasons to outsource is either the lack of knowledge or the lack of time. In case of the former you won't be able to check if the job has been done the rigth way and in case of the latter you'll need to waste time to verify the whole thing anyway. I think that you shouldn't outsource unless you have someone really trusted.

    I usualy just outsource stuff only to people I know personaly. This way I know it'll be a high quality original content. Also I'll have someone to blame if something goes wrong.

    Sadly, some companies insist on outsourcing to other nations just to save up on costs not because of their expertise. Then after a couple of months later, they kick themselves because things went horribly wrong.
