OMG!!! Did You Totally “Like” See What Tiffany’s Wearing?

In this scenario, Facebook is Tiffany—the popular cheerleader—and the new Facebook “Send” button is what it’s wearing. Klout is that nerdy student who knows everything about everyone. Klout knows who’s talking to whom, what they’re talking about, and who’s listening.

Yesterday, a day after Facebook introduced the new “Send” button, Klout rolled out the beta version of the New Klout. Google “Facebook’s new send button,” and you’ll get more than 10 million results. Google “Klout Redesign,” and you get less than One million.

For those caught up in the gossip of Facebook’s new “Send” button, you may have missed the news about Klout’s redesign.

Here are some new Klout fatures:

Perks – Influencers will be invited to take part in special offers they can then tweet about or share on their Facebook pages. Though, one’s acceptance of those offers or decision to talk about those offers does not effect one’s Klout score.

Lists – Create lists of people to better watch their Klout scores.

Influencers – See what topics anyone is influential about, who influences whom, who influences you, and whom you influence. (This is one Klout needs to work on, as a person is not necessarily influenced by a person just because they thank them for a mention or a retweet.)

Comparison – Compare your Klout score to anyone else’s or even those of two other people to give you a chance to study how to raise your Klout score.

They’ll roll-out more features, and they’re open to receiving feedback, so check out their blog and chime in.

Stay social my friends,
