1) Find something you like to do, or would like to learn how to do.
2) Go do that thing, while making an active attempt to be social
3) Make contact with individuals with an attempt towards contact outside said activity.
The sorts of things I did this with was fencing (medieval recreation people - hard to get to know but friends for life once you do) and swing dancing (easy to get to know but hard to pin down for anything more socially engaging than a 4 minute dance). Oh, volunteering is a good way, too. I've found that the best way to get to know people is to go out and do something you like doing, and know people who also enjoy doing similar things.
