One of the best ways (IMO) to make friends here is to participate in the Community Newsfeed. That's how I just found you. When you click Newsfeed on the left, it takes you to your Personal Newsfeed. You will only see what you have posted and what the people you have clicked their Plus button have posted (like this Schnujo's having school probs but no pressure to press mine lol, but it means you've fanned or favorited them).
When you go to your Personal Newsfeed, you'll see "View the Community Newsfeed" along the top. Click that and everything everyone has posted in their notebook (different from the private notepad) appears on their newsfeed because your notebook links to the newsfeed. So, once you are on the Community Newsfeed, Like/Love/Etc. people's posts, comment, and start making friends. After people have seen you for a while, they'll start clicking your Plus sign to fan or favorite you. And, of course, when you are interacting with someone you like, you can click theirs.
