I’m not analytical by nature, I’m more of an instinctive and intuitive type of person. But most of my training in school and my entire first career were all analytical in nature, creating in me a strange combination of analytical and artistic.
So I probably spend more time on numbers, structure and finding the right way to frame a situation than most of my artistic peers. It’s a blessing and a curse. But it can reveal some interesting insights and perspectives on how to solve problems as a creative person in a fast changing environment.
Therefore, I was intrigued when I recently stumbled upon Klout.com, though it is somewhat known among the more digitally literate circles. Klout measures one’s level of influence in the social media world. I’m not sure if this tool is actually useful, or just fun under the guise of useful (dangerous from a time management standpoint). Nevertheless, it can be an interesting way to frame what is valuable in an online presence.
