Hack the MIX Hackathon

How about starting with something as simple as setting up regular times each month to meet via webconference, e.g. Google+ Hangout, or Skype meeting. I do emphasize visual and not just audio conferences. Having worked from the middle of nowhere (Arizona) for almost two decades, I do value virtual encounters significantly. This is far more practical and inclusive than in-person meetings which only tends to happen in a spiky world (denser populations). -rawn
