Since the financial quarters are counted from Jan-Dec, dates in the first chart represent the start date for each quarter. 07-01-2008 happens to be the first day of Q3. Last column represents growth during Q3(first 15 days) till date.

The last column in each chart is qtr to date so its telling you how much growth has happened in this quarter to this day. If you extrapolate the quarter to date number you will see that oDesk's growth is skyrocketing

Has growth petered out

It seems that growth as petered out.
For the last quarter the there is a significant drop in all the charts.
Any reasons for the same. Is the data incomplete or this slowdown can be attributed to the global slowdown.

ODesk team please elucidate on the same.

Thanks
Sachin
