 <title>Neither of the graphs on</title>
 <link>http://www.odesk.com/community/oconomy/country_statistics#comment-15079</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;
Neither of the graphs on this page are about buyer companies (the companies that post the openings and do the hiring) - they&#039;re about providers who have signed up on oDesk, and providers who have been hired to do a job. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I will recommend a new graph be added to show the top buyer countries. At this time, the US is definitely on the top of that chart.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Not too great</title>
 <link>http://www.odesk.com/community/oconomy/country_statistics#comment-11372</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;When the oconomy starts i check the number of provider from Pakistan that was 1087 and now it is 1173. In my view we should increase this rate 100 providers increasing in 3, 4 months is not too good. For this purpose we should involves our all friends and all buddies related to us.&lt;/p&gt;

 <description>&lt;p&gt;Wow my country is in top 7 countries of the oDesk. That&#039;s great. This is showing the talent of my country. Having so much crisis in the country, it&#039;s a great work. Congrats to all the Pakistani providers.&lt;/p&gt;

 <description>&lt;p&gt;Ummm very interesting. I would assume that we might be in there considering that i think this is the easiest way to save money while getting great service &lt;/p&gt;

 <title>back effect on a long run</title>
 <link>http://www.odesk.com/community/oconomy/country_statistics#comment-7636</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Just searched providers with &amp;quot;sql&amp;quot; keyword and default sort order:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1st page: Ukraine - 3; Russia - 7;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2nd page: Russia - 5; Ukraine - 3; India - 2;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;3d page: Russia - 2; Ukraine - 3;&amp;nbsp; Moldova - 3; India - 2;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;That&#039;s somewhat alarming tendency. The massive increase of the incoming stream of developes from countries that use not to score &amp;quot;top developers&amp;quot; will dilute the oDesk image&amp;nbsp;as the source of&amp;nbsp;top quality &amp;nbsp;providers. &lt;/p&gt;
