Yes, our company is hiring a few Bangalore programmers, but I will manage 2 of them and still be coding stuff myself.

I'd love to hear how that works out.

From my personal experience, the job market is seriously heating up. I'm getting calls on resumes I posted a year ago. Looking at the job sites, there's a *ton* of new dev jobs out there.

Esp. the N. Carolina area, their 'Tech Triangle' as it seems to be called. That part of the country is sssssmokin'.

I'd love to hear how that works out.

It's a completely new 'take' on offshoring. Instead of firing the American and hiring 3 Indians with no clue, they KEEP the American and hire him/her two assistants. I will be offloading rote programming tasks, giving them things to do I don't have time for, etc. etc.

Example: Our product is international. We use a resource fall-back manager for localization of foreign strings.

They can replace all the text in the ASP.NET pages with labels for me, and I'll wire it all together.

This might work out.
