Actually, I don't believe I said _not_ to move at all. I said don't move until you're prepared. I'm giving this warning because many founders that I've spoken to only talk about the dream--then they move, and they find out it's not all that peachy. Cities like NYC and SF have tremendous cultural value and produce awesome products and have tons of talented people. The whole idea of moving is to attract the best and brightest to your team. Move when you're ready. The city pace moves fast, and so will your project too. If you move about a plan, prototype, or direction, you'll find the difficulty of whatever it is you're trying to accomplish compounded.
