Meetups and in-person events are not for everyone—being centered around pubs and alcohol puts some people off, for instance—but they can still be quite good ways to meet interesting people, scout out jobs/contract work, and often learn remarkable amounts of cool stuff from people generously sharing knowledge.
They're the one thing I recommend most to people starting out in tech.
And they're way less of a buzzword-ridden hellzone than LinkedIn.
