Just like that? Easier said than done. You're leaving out the most important part. The traditional way usually involves getting that lucky connection, getting funded, making a huge PR push using that funding and then make lots of money (or at least be in a position to). Otherwise there could be people out there who have products far better than what's around but can't rocket to the center of the universe because of the way things work now. It's like there's this bubble that you either live inside of or outside of which is created by tech rags like TechCrunch. If you're outside the bubble then good luck getting noticed. And for all the talk about how all these sexy new startups are being so innovative we sure do see a ton of me-too apps, networks, and SaaSes. What's an outsider to do? It's like getting mega rich. There's an unspoken truth that your position in life is governed by the class you we born in. Moving up a class is a true rarity. It's a myth in the style of The American Dream.
