This is a concept that I don’t understand why there isn’t more remote work out there, and why more companies out there aren’t embracing it. We have the technology, so why isn’t it embraced more? This would provoke more collaboration and efforts to work together, as well as allow the best talent to be hired rather than who is close enough but willing to make the commute. For much of the tech community world, this would be an ideal situation. What do you think? Include your comments below. –TechCommGeekMom
