Got Klout? Measure and Increase your Brand’s Online Influence
It could be said that the greatest strength of social media is its ability to easily share and spread messages. This ease of communication also seems to be its greatest weakness.

Only thing issue here is that it seems Klout is more about individuals than brands per se. (e.g. no Facebook page integration)
Just signed up yesterday :)
One thing that I wonder about Klout is how much it leans on twitter.
They seem to win by having there metric be secret.
Klout score can be an indicator of effectiveness.
But if I’m just making a bunch of noise, getting no return and just growing your Klout score, what’s the point.
That said I do check Klout weekly and there interface is addicting, does means it good for me : )
