I really loved reading this. I'm in a similar boat, though not at the stage of recruiting anyone yet. Let me ask you this though: are you unconcerned about not having people in a face-to-face environment?

I can't imagine working with someone on developing my/our shared passions remotely. Besides, I communicate far better in person. Is that an unusual position to take, in your eyes, or do you just know what you need from a technical standpoint and choose not to worry about personalities etc... ?

37signals have a vast team spread all around the world and they have always said it doesn't hinder them... I think if you believe in the people you are working with the distance soon doesn't matter too much.
