To be fair to oDesk, since this posting, some things have changed-like their email alerts. And they’ve improved the UI so one can more quickly scan the projects.

I've had nightmarish experiences in the past with programmers and have finally found someone who is honest, timely, and talented. The platform works well for me as I've been able to communicate everything I need very easily.</p> I just tried out oDesk as a buyer (employer) and have been thrilled.
