I don't know if I'm just lucky or something, but I somehow managed to turn quite a few contacts on LinkedIn, that I've never met before, into really nice in person connections. It's almost surreal. One became a friend, with kids playing together. Others are cool to meet for beers and good conversations, etc. Just last week I was on a plane and recognised someone, who I thought was one of the people on LinkedIn. Dropped a message just before the flight, ended up going through customs together. Got invited into a tech meetup, etc..
