For this week's segment of Charlottesville Plugged In, Amy Eastlack of SuzySaidCville joined CBS19's Jim Hanchett to discuss Klout. The Twitter tool helps the social media users determine who their most faithful supporters are, and who is following them.

The Klout Score measures influence based on your ability to drive action. Every time you create content or engage, you influence others.

The Klout Score uses data from social networks in order to measure:

How many people you influence (True Reach)

How much you influence them (Amplification)

How influential they are (Network Score)

Once you sign in to Klout it will calculate what your Klout score is and
give you a ranking.
