It kind of makes you wonder, has business always been about luck and sort of a blockbuster business model? Or, is it just that the web has expedited the time that it takes for a business to fly or fail, making the blockbusters and failures both more obvious? I don't know the answer, but it's interesting thinking about it. Interesting post. It kind of makes you wonder, has business always been about luck and sort of a blockbuster business model?

That's always been true of businesses if you're talking about blockbuster success. The big difference with the web is that those lower barriers to entry (for some businesses) allow you to try more and get your failures out of the way sooner. Back when I was writing Net Income, I had the opportunity to ask Tom Peters how you go about having a blockbuster book success like In Search of Excellence. His answer for books applies to blockbuster success in business on the web or elsewhere. Write the best book you can. Promote it till you puke. Get lucky.
