I guess others can give you lots of information (especially about tracking tasks, fighting procrastination, etc.), but I found that having regular meetings (weekly) if you're in the same area is great for keeping up morale. That is, if your team aren't really introverted, then they may not need so much social contact.

But I'd say either way that it's important to have a regular face-to-face. I think videoconferincing might work here in a pinch if needed.
