I am totally agreeing with Eamon. Besides the mentioned meetups there is a paper reading meetup, a google developer meetup, devops, python, coding grace, coder dojo, TOG (a really great hackerspace) and plenty more. I arrived a year ago in Dublin and was surprised about the variety and diversity of the tech scene in Dublin. I really think that Dublin has a strong and thriving tech scene.
