It seems that the ones getting the most buzz are those who are the best connected, even if your product is better than theirs. In this case, what is the best way to strike back?
(assuming trying to network yourself into his level is futile)
Not to split hairs here, but I don't think networking to that level is at all futile. Your competitors are doing it, and you want every advantage you can get.

Find one well-connected customer who cares a lot about the way your product is better.

I've set up this blog for this purpose:

i don't see how that would help you get buzz. maybe a sneeze but definitely no buzz
The blog isn't about launches, but rather updates. Moreover, any reasonable submission would be accepted.
So it gives you a way to promote your startup every week provided that you have some update to announce every week.
Many little sneezes could turn into buzz.
You could let people know about your product/service here. The community here is quite helpful and honest. http://news.ycombinator.com/comments?id=20342
