		<description>Thanks for the great comment! If Klout took into account the way we &quot;use&quot; social media - having conversation is a good thing, not something that should lower your score, it might be a great tool....</description>

		<description>Nice perspective, Robin. I agree - &#039;Klout can be fun - but &#039;clout&#039; is what matters, ultimately. It&#039;s funny - technology and tools start out by defining their own roles that force you to comply in order to play. But eventually, in the long run, when all is said and done, at the end of the day, when the cows come home - you get my drift - successful technologies usually are always those that mirror, enable, and accurately &#039;gel&#039; with real life.  

Not the other way around. Cheers!</description>

		<description>I agree! Your influence is more about customer engagement than the number of +K&#039;s you receive!</description>

		<description>I sympathize with your post Robin, this Klout thing is an inaccurate algorithm game. My Klout score have been fluctuating like crazy after the changes and even that I have been receiving a lot of Ks, interacting and engaging still dropped significantly. I still play with it but I lost trust.

I believe the only way you can measure your trust and influence is keeping your audience engaged and passionate about your brand, and keeping your costumer relationship as a main objective of your strategy.</description>

		<description>Bear, I&#039;m just not sure how accurate their scores are.... I&#039;m still on Klout, I just think my true &quot;clout&quot; is better measured in outcomes not algorithms.</description>

		<description>Robin, wonderful points in this post! Seems like after Klout lowered scores folks started asking more tough questions about how accurate the scoring system is. I for one am using it slightly less, but have not completely abandoned it... yet!</description>

		<description>Sorry, SEO is NOT paid search.  
SEO is the same thing as NSO.  

Paid search is SEM.</description>

		<description>Very well said Sandy, I agree completely. New media is important, but the exiting media still has a place in the marketing mix.</description>
