This is a post on a forum where the participants are discussing the internet and how it has affected their lives.

I wondered whether this was something like a 'get together' or 'gathering'. Confirmation or otherwise gratefully received :-)

да, кстати, я вот тоже частенько сижу на городском форуме. интересно читать блоги отчасти знакомых людей нашего небольшого города. сайт для молодежи. стабильно раз в 3 месяца устраивает **коннекты**. пару раз ходила, вполне себе ничего) а сестра так вообще учавствовала в конкурсе красоты, объявленном городским сайтом)

meetup

That what an offline get-together of people who met online can be called in AE, though there's also a social networking site which adopted the same name.

"offline" feels important to differ from online activities, example in the wild — http://potterland.ru/connects/
