There's some interesting things being done by 7 degrees, not with the LinkedIn API, but in the same space. They have pulled in so much data that you can practically find out how you're connected to anybody. They incorporate LinkedIn in the sense that you have the option to give it your LinkedIn credentials and it then scrapes your connections through it. I know exactly how I'm connected to Bill Gates, for example (i.e. I know so-and-so, who knows so-and-so, etc., who knows Bill Gates). https://www.mypeoplemaps.com/
