I worked 100% from home/remote for almost a decade. I found it via connections/chance... I'd emailed someone I read about in a magazine, we kept in contact, a few months later he asked if I'd like to help his friend with a small website project. Apparently they liked my work, because they kept sending me more of it.

Yeah, I'm getting the impression it's usually a more casual deal or something you grow into after 'proving' yourself at your current work-from-office position.

Perhaps it's a niche for a jobs board? If you try and search for remote/telecommute jobs at the moment all you seem to get is spam.
