I too am in the other camp. I've already developed a MVP over the past year over many iterations. Now I want to find a co-founder that wants to help me take it to the next level for an equity stake. The problem is location. The midwest is a horrible place to birth an internet startup.
It might be worthwhile to add some contact information to your profile or a link to your blog about your MVP. Otherwise those of us in the Midwest who might be interested can't ever find out more. :) I'm in Chicago and love to connect with other who are actually doing it.
