The 'Dear Erica' letter
November 14th, 2009
We rely a lot on the RentaCoder and Odesk networks for your work. Both networks have their advantages:
An unforgiving tale of extremes

My world friends
They are many, Salman, Nagesh, Pavan, Matjaz, Umair, Masood and not to forget Vicky (who I secretly suspect is really a man). All have top level rails qualifications. Or so they say.

For some strange reason, this does not seem to go well with the current WordonWiki software. We seem to be unable to find good programmers that have the necessary skills.Read more

This is not just a fling, but a long lasting relation.Read more
