Not sure where to jump into this thread:
There are many good reasons the bay area is the hub of tech development. It all started with proximity to two very good computer science schools; Stanford and UC Berkeley. At this point, there are more tech-savvy investors here than anywhere else.
Ongoing development of technology is an iterative process and by necessity, must be a productive one to get to market more quickly. The VCs and the talent pool are here in the bay area. If a startup wants to get to market quickly, that startup will need money and talent, both of which are people issues.
