A couple of years ago, I was away from the U.S. for a few months and thought I'd try to get some contracts online. I hadn't heard of oDesk and only knew of some others like rentacoder. I did the exact same thing you suggested, which is send a link to a prototype in my bid. With my awesome luck, I didn't hear back from either of the 2 projects I sent the prototypes for. I ended up finding a software company that was hiring locally.
