I got sucked back into Klout today, after about a six month hiatus. I think it’s one of those social networks you get drawn into for a day or two, and then forget about. Google+ anyone? A friend of mine mentioned to me that Klout users can get Klout Perks:  free/discounted products and services. I’m not sure how this is any different than the dozens of daily deal emails already out there – am I missing something?

I do find it funny how my Klout profile says I’m an influencer of 20 topics including: Whitney Houston, Waka (as in Waka Flaka), bacon, social media, cars and Glee. If you know me, you probably also find this hilarious.

According to Klout I am officially a Specialist – focused and consistent.

Verdict: I like Klout in small doses, it’s not a platform I would visit on a regular basis. What’s your opinion on Klout? Yay, nay, don’t care?
