Today we released the oDesk Manifesto for Online Work, the first and only such bill of rights for buyers and providers. Our goal is to show the world that online work is just as viable as traditional work. And since we think oDesk has the best business model for both buyers and providers, we’re publishing this Manifesto to prove it.
oDesk is the only company to offer guaranteed payment to providers and guaranteed work to buyers. The Manifesto is a declaration to professionals who sell their services through the Internet marketplace and the companies that hire them: Don’t settle for less than you deserve.

Sounds like an excellent ad for oDesk.

I guess, being new on Odesk without any hours is NOT a reason to drop one's rate like a bomb on Hiroshima ( just a metaphor )... I hope Odesk will set a minimum bid rate for each category.. I can't believe my eyes when I saw a programmer's profile ( I even blinked thrice ) and saw that he's charging $0.10 per hour.
Anyway, your message is so uplifting
