Big waste of time and money. Do not ever pay someone overseas until they complete the project. Negotiate all contracts make sure you aren't paying out money until you receive at least minimal deliverables. Odesk.com seems like a popular site but I highly prefer the escrowed payments systems at rentacoder.com much more protection for the software buyer.
