The Year That Was 2014 - Upwork

It has been Upwork for a while now and I do not want to bother with changing things here.

After some lazy years and doing other people's work, I now have a bit of time to myself - hence this post.

The transition from oDesk to Upwork has not been the smoothest of rides but it's OK for the most part. There were times many freelancers in the Upwork community like myself were not pleased with certain changes.And, there were also increased occasions of downtime which really got to me and perhaps many others. I do look forward to what 2016 has in store and things have not been the best so far - just OK.

Now, to the point of this post.

Below is a set of screenshots of the page from http://elance-odesk.com/online-work-report-global. It was taken on Feb 22, 2016. On the surface it looks promising for Upwork and Elance but I would caution on taking some of the things on there at face value. I have not really given it some real thought and these are just raw on the fly comments.

I would like to see 2015 so a comparison can be made.
