I know about weworkremotely by 37signals but I can't find too many forums dedicated to remote work out there. Any hints?

Are you looking for work or an actual forum to chat like HN?

Here is a link to someone who did a "Top 5":

Depending on your skills, you should also be looking at skill-relevant sites (ruby has plenty).

You could also try the freelance websites to find remote gigs, but it's not #exactly# the same having a remote job for a single company when compared to doing freelance work for many companies.

I found this forum:

It would be interesting to have some type of remote worker community beyond just a forum, to maybe learn from others experiences and other remote-related things.

I made a mistake with the forum. It is actually some guys website about working remotely with a forum attached to it.
