Online Influence Matters. What’s Your Klout?
You’re influential online and the world away from keyboard rewards you. That’s the future when your Klout score gets more and more important. Here’s a look at how online influence has invaded our world, has always been here and the reasons you should care.
What Cinderella Can Teach Top Management About Internal Social Media
Do your CEO and his closest crew say no to internal social media? What’s the reason? Well, it sounds differently in different corporations or depending on who you speak to, but a common answer when management don’t want to engage is this:
“We don’t want people to throw away valuable work hours by chatting, irrelevant status up-dating and God-knows-what non work related stuff. And, by the way, social media is probably just a passing fad. So, just let us ignore it.”

Build Your Brand Like Bieber
There was a time when Justin Bieber was the only person in the world with the perfect Klout score, (he had 100), but it changed when Klout altered its algorithm in August 2012.

Accidental Information share communication ideas and solutions in a whole new way.
Head in the Klout: My Score Went Up. How About Yours?
I woke up yesterday morning and told my significant other that I was considering a move to Silicon Valley. He shook his head and said that this week’s research for my blog had made me obsessed with excessive numbers completely detached from the real world.
You’re not Judged by Klout Score. Your Digital Presence is.
You’ve probably heard about Klout score. Rumour says it’s so important in Silicon Valley that you’re not admitted to job-interviews if your Klout is lower than 50 (out of 100). Knowing that 20 is the average Klout for the average person and that it’s harder to climb from 30 to 40 than from 10 to 20, it’s pretty tough. (As you can see below, I’m not invited).
