Where the Smart People Live
- blacksmythe 16y agoThe key metric is not how far away your collaborator is in miles, but in minutes. It is much easier to get around in San Jose. You could collaborate with a lot of people within a half-hour drive in San Jose, probably more than in San Francisco. NYC is similarly over-weighted for collaboration.
