Twitter followers? How to get them?

[Rainbows Light Up My Clody Sky]

Seriously I've had twitter for like a week now and I have no followers what so ever... Okay I have four but still! I don't want some creepy people, I just want some friends. I have plenty in "real life" but not on twitter. Is there any way I can add some of my friends without the whole e-mail thing? like looking for them through twitter? (kind of like a facebook/myspace search)
if you don't know what a twitter is dont answer the question!

Well the best way would be to write some interesting twitters, sadly, if this post is any indication, it would sooner rain cats.
