It's a heap of shite, but... some of the "perks" are no bad. Discount lift passes were good. Particularly when my code worked umpteen times :D

I heard of it a while back when Giz tried to game it to turn one of their single male researchers into the top authority on being a mother.

Joined it to see if it would be useful in helping me get more people to look at things I'd written or made. It's cock.

Our MD heard about this site a while back and so I was asked to investigate it to see if it would be useful for us. It wasn't.

I've just logged in for the first time in ages and our Klout score has dropped to 12.42. Oh no!
