Re: [Haskell-cafe] Getting Haskell in the top 20

My contribution for today: haskell programming, haskell programming, haskell programming. 2014-12-01 22:08 GMT+01:00 Alex Hammel :

Or the Haskell architecture firm, or the Haskell Indian Nations University, or Eddie Haskell the character from Leave it to Beaver, etc. etc.

As opposed to "Haskell golf shoes".

The point is that the TIOBE index doesn't track that stuff directly, but indirectly through mentions. If the items you mention result in more people talking about "Haskell programming" then it will result in a higher index score.

Using the words "Haskell" and "programming" in emails probably helps getting Haskell a few places up, but I think there is much more needed to get it in the top twenty. Things like a GHC backend that produces Java bytecode and/or Common Intermediate Language, commercial support, or Microsoft delivering Haskell in a Visual Studio environment. These are things that will raise much more interest in Haskell in the commercial world, and therefore would also interest more programmers.

Make sure the actual words "Haskell programming" occur in as many

as possible [posts here, on reddit, on stackoverflow, etc]. Not variants of those words, but those exact words. Like you did in your .sig (although that may not be indexed, so it may need to be in the actual text).

Get it into people's phrasing that they always speak of "Haskell programming", not Haskell code, coding, etc, etc.

L.S.,

In the Tiobe Index[0], F# jumped from position 43 in June to 13 in

July

and is since than in the top twenty. What happened in July and how can we get Haskell in the top 20?
