I've conversed with American Idol contestant Didi Benami online before, and she's tweeted me quite a few times.
Also, Amanda Palmer from The Dresden Dolls, who's really nice - and her boyfriend, writer Neil Gaiman tweeted me once. I tweeted him to embrace the tambourine as his calling in life, and he tweeted me with, "Alas, the glory I would garner as a tambourinist would distract me from my true path."
Dave Wyndorf, the lead singer from Monster Magnet used to be really active on his forum back in the day, and I was also active, so he and I talked quite a lot on there, about any number of things really.
My main thrill was a 3 month internet correspondence with Brian May from Queen. He responded to a lot of my letters in his "soapbox", and actually emailed me for a little while. Probably the most exciting time of my life.
