I'm a remote guy and have been for over 10 years (different companies) and being a part of a community targeted at "just remotes" is something I've wanted for a long time.
The site is polished; extremely so for something "brand new". It was a joy to write my first two posts, setup my profile and read literally everything on the site this evening. Little things like the activation e-mail not ending up in my spam folder in GMail (which seems to happen with every "Show HN" activation message) make me believe you've got a bit of experience doing things like this.
There haven't been that many forum/HN/Reddit-style sites that I've actually been excited about -- I'll be checking back in frequently and I hope you manage to build up an active community as a result of the work you've put into this.
