ODesk is the least bad of the general sites. There are a few niche networks that are decent also, e.g. TopTal.com.

I agree. Odesk is decent.

My experiences with Freelancer.com were awful:

Does anybody have any experience with TopTal? Somebody (I guess a recruiter had just sent me an email inviting me there?)

I have worked with both elance and odesk. I shifted to Odesk after some issue with elance and never looked back.
