Yah, I get very dramatic about the issue of networking and "career hacking" since it's a topic of extreme passion for me....it can come across as a bit douchebaggey sometimes and I try to curb that as much as possible.
In reality, apart from linkedin and cold calling stuff, it's basically just finding intelligent/cool people to party with and then meeting their friends, and friends of friends.
I get where you are coming from. I do the same thing with trying to push people towards making money online and escaping the jobs they hate. Unfortunately for them, they often think it isn't possible and never take me seriously. I'll preach until I'm blue in the face trying to help someone, but only one has ever really "got" what I was trying to tell them.
