i worked on a project where i worked with one programmer in china, another in the Ukraine. (this was chosen for me, not my idea)
the guy in Ukraine quit working (without notice) but i became good friends with the guy in china
he wrote quality code and always followed directions...he was a phd student looking for additional income (worked 20 or so hours a week at 22 $'s an hour)
i made sure to build a relationship, not "get cheap programming services"...it allowed me to partner with people that just happen to be in a different location
i would probly not choose this type of arrangement, but it wasn't hard to do...he programmed when i was asleep and i when he was asleep...
so, my point is: it can work out good
there are people everywhere who can do the work
i hate it more when they hire "Jimmy the nephew" to do work
heck, i don't want those clients anywayz...half my recent projects have been helping people fix the crap that others left behind...sucks
this is too long and i need sleep
