It's simple.

This is what they (investors) want you to do.

Come down to S.V., spend some time there (preferably move), and try to party crash into every tech meetups they have to connect and network. Get their business card, and add them as your facebook/linked in friends.

This is how it used to be and this is how it will still be. Angellist doesn't try to solve this one bit, yet I think.
