  It's easy. Pimp yourself out, put up a resume.html, write "Haskell" on your linkedin profile. This "throwaway" line on my resume: """Interest in functional programming (Erlang, Haskell, Lisp) and associated techniques as they relates to increasing software reliability and scalability.""" ...has gotten me at least 2-3 calls/emails for erlang/haskell-specific work over 3-4 years, and that's without even trying. Don't be afraid either to make up a second resume b/c from what I can tell recruiters just do google searches and click on links. With linked-in, write a "brave" summary up top and put in a strong haskell statement or two in your details section and you'll probably start getting some calls. If you're happily employed right now then don't be afraid to change your resume / linked in / passive search to reflect your dream job instead of a "real" job-search resume. Just be ready to "change it back" when you get serious about looking.
