You would seem to be an outlier then. Good developers are nearly impossible to find, and don't stay on the market for long.

I'd bet that if you dropped a few links to projects you've done in your spare time during your job hunt, you'd have people here asking for your resume. (assuming, of course, that you've been building projects in your spare time and that they're good.)

+1. I've actually gotten a handful (3 or 4) of people here encourage me to apply various places.
