As with gardening, I believe the best kind of growth is organic. Start searching for tags that interest you or search through "introduceyourself" posts and start connecting with like-minded people who are doing interesting things. From there, you never know how those connections will evolve and you may meet other cool people in the comment sections of their posts. Just keep planting seeds of connection and some are bound to sprout! Sorry for all the gardening metaphors, haha. :) You have a new follower.
