How do you find your Twitter buddies?

I got to wondering today, what is the way most people on Twitter find the people they follow? I am sure we all have our different ways of going about this. I just think if I got some feedback on this in the comments section it could be interesting, as well as maybe help us out there discover new peeps to follow.
As for me, which I have covered before.... I use Tweetscan to search for topics that interest me. For example I usually search "Ohio" in hopes to find people that are from my area, I also use "Beta Invite" so I can add people who seem to be the first to know about newly released Beta apps.
I think it's funny to look back when I first started "tweeting" I was ignorant to the whole thing, and had no friends that had used Twitter. I went in blind and used the "Timeline" to find interesting people. After I found a few good people I started following people they follow and the rest is history.....
So my question for you is first, how did you find your first people to follow, and how do you find them now?

First people I started following were the BOL hosts, then I started to follow a few other people at cnet. Then I got active on the forums over there and met alot of people that way!

Well, I started following my friends, and then gradually starting following other people that I didn't really know.

I follow some of the big names, but tend to enjoy the regular people more. Usually find them as referrals from others I follow. I found you from (jeff)isageek.
