I've been on Twitter since the beginning and have had the same experience. Start following some people, post some interesting things and you'll get followers.

I've been on Twitter since the beginning and have had the same experience. Start following some people, post some interesting things and you'll get followers. Another way to get followers is to either pimp a product or complain about a product. More often than not, you'll get some followers and you might get a response. Either way, I've loved it. It's very stream of conscious and a great sounding board for me.
