Growth in Indian Offshoring Slowing
quantumstream writes "CNN/Money is reporting that high wages are causing some software companies to look to other countries for outsourcing, including Eastern Europe and several other SE Asian countries. Gartner Research believes a drop of 45% in India's share could happen in the next two years. Is this the beginning of the end of the dominance of India in the tech offshoring market?"

India is being outsourced? That's ironic.
Note to mods: I'm probably being sarcastic.
now i will have a plethora of accents to learn, and i already have a hard time understanding american.... :(
Let's see, we need a place where people speak English, there is a significant number of people who know something about computers, and the wages are even lower than in India.
Given the plethora of 419 e-mails that evade my spam filter, how about Nigeria?
Cargo ships and decomissioned aircraft carriers to be converted into mobile call centers! Will dock where the wages are lowest!
I was just getting good at understanding the Indian accent when I was calling Tech Support!
Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government.
Water flows downhill...
Seeing bad movies only encourages them. Watch responsibly
a number of business sites are saying Latin America is the new India for outsourcing. They have similar timezones to U.S., speak English, and are even a relatvely short plane trip away
Huh? Does that mean all of the Spanish-only speakers came here to the US???
"India raked in more than $2 billion of an estimated $3 billion global ... market."
"the worldwide offshore BPO market will grow to about $24 billion by 2007 of which India will earn about $13.8 billion."
So with massive market growth India might slip below 50% market share if they don't watch their back.
But it's not like they're stocking up on pink slips in Bangalore.
The world will not get better through technology. We must seek to be better people.
I'm waiting for the revolution... That's revolution as in wheel, not revolution as in speech.
Heres the road map:
US workers are too expensive so US companies outsource jobs to India.
India becomes too expensive, so they outsource to Russia.
Russia becomes too, so they outsource to [another country].
Repeat ad nauseum until...
[Mid. o' Nowhere] becomes too expensive, so they outsource jobs to... the US.
I will call this assertion More's law. I propose that this cycle will double in frequency every 18 months. It will be become so rapid that every country in the chain will only add 1 character, then only 1 bit.
This will continue until no real work will be done. There will be an infinate loop of new contracts circling the globe every few hours. The only way to break the loop is run out of lawyers. The matrix was so close, it was actually lawyers, not robots that envslaved humanity. Now we know, so we can stop it.
Perhaps buy a sheep or a cotton tree
;-)
Please, tell us more about these "cotton trees" of which you speak....
