Well lets talk about facts and figures.
o UK economy had gained 16 billion pounds
through offshoring in 2004.
o Venture capital and private equity firms
invested over $1.1 billion in 66 Indian
companies during 2004
Not sure about the GUI programming or the aesthetics and mindsets needed to do that.
Never tried my hands on it:-). But always
believed that contributions in programming or
computer scinece in general require intelligence, innovation and persistence. And every country has its share of sharp minds.
I am from India and I work for a company which is in software services. I think you should name the company you are dealing with in public, so that people are more cautious in dealing with them in future. Lots of company here in India do pretty good job with outsourced projects. But I must admit there are a few who are not providing sufficient value to the customer. Name them and let the market decide. I am pretty sure if it happens repeatedly they are out of business.
yeah I too don't have one. Could anyone please
send me one invitation for the same ?

Offshoring IT

"if an American engineer can do the work of six Indian engineers" is not justified.
Every country has its own share of talented
people, India is not an exception. Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), Wipro Ltd. and Infosys Technologies Ltd. routinely sell to Fortune 500 companies, and they compete with IT services giants such as IBM, Electronic Data Systems Corp. and Accenture Ltd. Outsourcing in India began as a cost saving game. Soon quality and productivity turned it into a mature process. And the
industry is moving higher in value chain
very fast. These days in Bangalore you
will see many startups working on interesting technologies, a trend not seen
several years back. And I am sure the trend
has just been set. It is more than cost-saving, to save some bucks nobody sends
the software development for some mission
critical application to India. For the success of the global economy it is very
important that these developing countries
prosper.
