« Get ready. Social scoring will change your life. » There is an interesting, and perhaps alarming, trend brewing on the social media scene. Take a look at a couple items in the news last week: * The Palms Hotel in Las Vegas is providing perks to guests based on their Klout score (an assessment of social media influence)** * By the end of the year, Twitter said their new analytics will provide influence scores for every user. * People are now curating lists of the most influential bloggers by Klout score. * Virgin Airlines offered free flights on a new route to people with high influence scores on Twitter. * Hoot Suite allows you to sort Twitter results by the influence of the people in the list. http://bit.ly/fIipuJ Source: http://www.businessesgrow.com/2010/11/22/get-ready-social-scoring-will-change-your-life List archives at http://lists.ufl.edu/archives/recmgmt-l.html Contact [log in to unmask] for assistance To unsubscribe from this list, click the below link.
