2010-02-05T10:23:59-08:00
<h1>Find your friends and make some new ones</h1>
<p>Twitter is more fun with friends. Now that you're twittering, find new friends or follow people you already know to get their twitter updates too. You can find your friends using <a href="http://twitter.com/invitations/find_on_twitter">people search</a>, <a href="http://search.twitter.com">Twitter search</a>, <a href="http://twitter.com/invitations">address book import</a>, or URL look up.</p>
<p class="Verdana"><span class="Arial"> </span><strong><br />Note: </strong>Did you know that you can navigate directly to a user's profile if you know their username? Simply enter the URL http://twitter.com/username in your browser, replacing 'username' with the username of the account you would like to visit.</p>
<p class="Verdana"> </p>
<h2>Find People by name</h2>
<p>Use Twitter's <a href="http://twitter.com/invitations/find_on_twitter">people search</a> to find people who currently use Twitter. Search for a first, last, or user name as a starting point, and see what comes up. We use the full name as well as the user name fields to give you as many relevant results as possible.</p>
