Carl -

Having seen both sides of the fence for a long time and equally, I can provide you with more perspectives regarding outsourcing and globalization. I have done a lot of work in it & am continuing to do so.
I was once interviewed by the Hartford Courant for over 2 hours - they didn't publish it!

SB,

Please elaborate!

hmm..
I'll blog about in the next few days and trackback to Steven's show..

Good show.

I'm surprised you guys didn't touch upon Argentina. Being both an argentine immigrant who frequently visits his native land and a programming geek, I have an inside view at what seems to be a very well kept secret regarding the outsourcing of technology/programming services to Argentina.

It's bizarre when you go down to Buenos Aires and you see huge skyscrapers with the logos of Microsoft, Sun Microsystems, Accenture, etc, yet you rarely hear anything about it here in the US.

If you ask me, technology Outsourcing in Argentina is worth looking into.

Check out Daniel Cazzulino. He is in the fray and leads a fascinating life going back and forth between Redmond and Buenos Aires. He keeps a blog at http://weblogs.asp.net/cazzu

Major bandwidth crunch must be going on, been trying to stream it for last 4 hours randomly, even when saving file it says 6 hours to save.

It should be better now.

By the way, we're moving files to a new server in Seattle. It should be online by next week, and will be twice as fast. The next phase will come in April, and will be 10 times as fast. :-)
