Escrow is good, but for pure coding/projects have a look at rentacoder.com. They have a framework for the purchaser to full out when ordering and then a followup framework for the programmer. Theyalso hold the funds in their own escrow service during the entire project, 100% of agreed sum escrowed before job starts and then the purchaser can release percentages of that sum upon reaching agreed milestones. And should you not come to an agreement, the site has mediators who can be called in. Dealing with people unkown to me, well, that's one way to go. I wouldn't want GFY's first page to be full of people tracking their projects, and I sure as hell wouldn't want my own projects being tracked that way. What I order and from whom, is my private business.
