San Fran is going to have more people, but it really depends on where you'd rather live. I would advise against working virtually if possible.
What is your background - if I may ask?
I agree about working virtually, but I feel I need to get some traction with this first iteration.
I'm a software developer who's co-owned a company before.
What's your advice for incentivising developers to work on a non-VC funded idea? I have funds to pay for a while, but not a full salary/benefits.
