Happy April Fool’s Day! Connect MySpace to Klout

April 4th, 2012 by Lan Nguyen


This April Fool’s Day we decided to integrate one very influential social network to Klout.

Over the past weekend, Klout users could “connect” MySpace to Klout and trigger the transformation of their Klout Score into beautiful masterpieces. If you don’t remember, MySpace was notorious for its customizable profile designs. Our creative team whipped up some totally amazing Klout Score logos for this occasion.

Last but not least, we added Tom Anderson, one of the co-founders of MySpace, to everyone’s influence network to honor the impact he made on the internet.

    OMG. I totally fell for it and added my MySpace. Anything to increase my Klout score. At least I didn’t select one of the sparkly ones.
