No luck required. Most of the big well known tech companies are devoted to making it easier for people to do their thing and/or share the results.
Google: Advertisements for your work.
Apple: Music and graphic production toolchains. The iPod / iPhone. The AppStore (for all its many, many flaws).
Yahoo Stores / Ebay / many others: Sell your stuff online.
Free or nearly free webhosting. Social networking, blogging, Twitter, etc.
This isn't accidental. People are social animals, and many of us are creative social animals; we want to share news and creations with our friends, and some of us want to make a buck doing it.
