Every time I read one of these "outsourcing to India" articles, I laugh out loud.

The poor saps pursuing this holy grail may as well invest their time and energy in developing New Coke.

The perception of India as a nation of a billion highly-trained software engineers willing to work for poverty wages is hilarious.

While a "globalized" work force is a natural and inevitable consequence of exponentially improving technology (and, notably, the Internet), these "innovators" are about to prove once again that you get no more than what you pay for.

Meanwhile, wages for techies in India are going to get a very sweet bump. Grats and peace out to my bruthahs and sistahs in Bangalore, yo!
