Come on. Everybody knows that having a server and a bit of coding skill isn't enough to do anything. You have to sign a lease to an office in a trendy part of town and stock it full of free soda and Aeron chairs and hire an HR department before you can even think of getting your project going!
Now you have to have at least 10k twitter followers, at least 5k HN karma, posess at least one Arrington-stained blue dress, and win any number of other Silicon Valley popularity contests. It's all about "networking" nowadays.
