Specifically speaking for tech jobs, why are we still commuting? I honestly don't think why a distributed team can't just work. I have seen teams that are entirely distributed, or with a few members remote that work great. The times I have seen it not work is when there are other things that smell, but remoteness of team members becomes an easy scapegoat to pin the blame.
Also, I don't think working from home as a norm is radical. Why do we all have to swarm back and forth to some magical place? Making employees commute is an awfully expensive proposition for quality water-cooler time.
