Hmm. Lots of employers in the the on-site jobs thread. Lots of job seekers in the freelance thread. We've long had the technology to work remotely, now we're just waiting for corporations to catch up to the 21st century.
Most of the job posters (in the other thread) are looking for full time developers and are concentrated in SF, NY, and Boston. They want programmers on site.
It's either a market imbalance or a communication disconnect.
