KLOUT - do You have IT?
Measuring social media impact with Klout
Klout, an online site that measures your influence online. You can start with Twitter or Facebook. The program will analyze your online activity and rates your level of influence. Klout, like some of the other newer platforms is taking hold in 2011 and growing. Watch the video below with Joe Fernandez, CEO and Klout cofounder to get a feel of what to expect with Klout.
Hi, Teral.
A "Caveat" about Klout -
If you have Multiple Twitter Accounts and/or Multiple Facebook Accounts, you will need to determine the Klout Score for each of them. Failure to Log Out of Facebook or Twitter, or Failure to Clear Your Browser, can create a different Klout Score.
Sounds like some glitches in the program huh, Fred. I only have one account on each so hopefully I'm good. But thank you for sharing that info.
There are too many things out there. Google +, Klout... when does it end?! I have to stop SOMEWHERE! Not giving up the Rain!
Joni, I think technology is out of control. Like you said, something new everytime we turn around. Now we need to decide how we want to do the tasks we seek to accomplish. But don't rule out Klout just yet. They have perks.
I am in favor of Klout too. This video was very helpful in giving more information about Klout. My Klout score now on Twitter is 41. Didn't know they are expanding to 20 more Social Media sites. Thanks for sharing. Great post.
Hi Teral - This was a very interesting video. I have not tracked my klout score but have heard of the company.
Hi Marc, I think we will be hearing about Klout even more with corporations looking at it as a means to promote their products.
I really like having this "measurements" of my productivity and influence to refer to. I don't live and die by them, but I do use them as an indication as to whether I'm on the right track with some of my marketing. It's been helpful to know where my weaknesses and strengths are and to be able to address each. Klout is one such measurement available and it's free. How can you NOT at least give it a try??

Nothing wrong with giving it a shot, Gene. Klout just may be the next great gadget...with perks.
