"If I'm looking for Web programmers, I'm better off looking for those people in the U.S"
This needs more context. I am a Rail Developer, so will speak about that. There is a fledging Ruby on Rails community in India. India has one Rails Core, 1-3 Rails issues-team devs and tons of contributors to Ruby on Rails -contributors.rubyonrails.org. It hosts one of the biggest asian Ruby conference - rubyconfindia.org, and has many businesses thriving around it. Web development is a big thing here.
Again the comparison is incomplete, without more statistics. Either way, it doesn't matter where a developer is from, if he's amongst the best ones around the world.
