@tundewoods,

Now one begins to wonder who is suffering from inferiority complex when you imagine that foreign exposure is necessary for someone, I really pity you.

People like you argue over nothing and in the end will agree with what you may have spent time arguing about.

Maybe it's your level of intelligence that is the problem otherwise I cannot still figure out why anyone would have any problem with my position on this issue that outsourcing works in some cases and does not work in others.

If your level of reasoning is what foreign exposure offers then you would have been a better man had you not left Nigeria at all. Trust me I don't belong to the group you can fool with your meaningless rhetorics.

@smartsoft,

Can you please state your issue with me in a simple and clear statement as I honestly cannot make out with the issue is from your post?

Interesting thread !Outsourcing does make sense

Based on this article, Nigeria may be officially adopting this measure

@tundewoods
bros its been a while, as always your posts are always enlightening as opposed to others who are always looking for avenues to cause strife and impose their ignorance and backwardness on others.

Outsourcing has made life real easy for me, i dont see why i cant push for 3 to 4 jobs at once and bring in other webdeveloper friends in on it,were all the better for it.I also have larger companies outsource jobs to me and i dey chop money.

@my2cents,

Are you really serious about your statement above? Did you really read the Guardian article well?

The problem we face as a people is that a lot of people that know little about issues make the most noise and when you come down to the basics they disappear.

There is basically no tangible point in the article to link Nigeria with any plan to make it an outsourcing destination. I have attended meetings where top executives talk pure nonsense about IT, thinking that by using technological jargons they will be making sense.

The 2 companies/agencies trying to harmonize their activities since some of them overlap is certainly not the same as outsourcing.

Afam,

I actually didn't read it. I just was trying for a diplomatic way to blow away the steam from the pot that has been simmering with respect to this post

Afam better change your mindset

@my2cents,

Ok, I was surprised.

@tundewoods,

This is what happens when people don't understand issues, they turn to outright lies to support their erroneous claims. You believe outsourcing is the key to becoming a successful web businessman, I disagreed with the statement because outsourcing makes sense in some cases and don't make sense in others.

So, who is being factual and reasonable here.

It is a known fact that a lot of Nigerians don't like to be proven wrong and rather than try to get the facts on issues they just say anything and expect people to agree with them and when this don't happen they get angry.

Your position on outsourcing is flat wrong, that is the point I am making, as simple as that.

@smartsoft,

I should change my mindset so that I sit down from morning till night waiting for other web developers to outsource jobs to me, is that it? No, thanks, my mindset right now won't give room for such bad strategy.

Is it not funny that the likes of tundewoods believe that outsourcing is good because they outsource projects they cannot handle inhouse to others where as the likes of smartsoft believe that outsourcing is good because they expect other developers to outsource jobs to them.

Breaking things down again, is it the domain name registration, web hosting plan, database, web programming, web design, or testing that should be outsourced considering the fact that almost all the tools necessary to complete the tasks above are already being handled by different companies?

What do web developers do in reality if you take away design, programming, setting up a database and testing? Is applying your skill on what you know well now wrong simply because some believe you should outsource even when those you are supposed to outsource to do not possess the skills you have inhouse?

In the final analysis people don't make money by claiming to make money, they do make make, those that brag and talk big will as usual turn around to accuse others of doing same, what a shame.

i'm claping for you ooo see is not asif we can't handle those programing jobs too well it's all boils down to your job deadline. if you are given a deadline to submit a job and also you still have some others one that are supose to be submitted at the same time, woun't you outsource it and make sure it is been done how you wanted it ? thats my point ooo Bros AFAM
