We're small, bigger than 5 of course, but small. Been distributed for 18 years, we tried office space for the bay area people and eventually went 100% distributed. We've got people on both coasts of the US as well as the middle (not sure if we have anyone in MST but we have all the other time zones covered). And people in Canada, eh? www.bitkeeper.com
And are you hiring?

Not right now, we're trying to see if we can market our way
back to being a known brand. If we can do that, yeah, we'll
be hiring.

#23Nomad List is a team of 5+ data editors, writers + founder. http://nomadlist.com
Didn't know you've got that many people involved. Awesome stuff. By the way, are you in Bali? I would love to chat.

#24Articulate is at 150+ employees, about 100 of which are developers. And they're always hiring. And they have no office anywhere. It's surprising they don't come up in these discussions more often.
For a company without an office, why are they limiting their hires to the US?
They're not. I live in France. Several devs live out of a backpack wherever the sun happens to be shining.

#26Pretty sure http://rogueamoeba.com fits the bill. I enjoyed an interesting interview with the founder Paul Kafasis on Debug. I had a good laugh at the discussions about having employees for years and never meeting them. http://m.imore.com/debug-66-paul-kafasis-rogue-amoeba
