Everyone is curious to see how they rank against others, which is the fundamental appeal of Klout. It gives you a social media ranking based on your influence on Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, and now Foursquare, which Klout today is adding as the fourth social network that can help boost your score. While looking at how many people follow you or retweet you on Twitter might give a sense of how far your voice travels in the social media sphere, Foursquare adds a level of local intelligence.Presumably, your Foursquare score will be based on how often you check in, how many mayorships you've earned, and so on. But if you want to know by how much it will boost your score, you will have to wait up to 72 hours after you connect your Foursquare account to Klout because it doesn't calculate it immediately. But I wonder, once a large number of Foursquare mayors and other influentials add their accounts and their Klout scores go up, will other people's go down if they don't add theirs? Is this the beginning of a social media arms race?
