October 13, 2011 – 2:27 pm

Social media analysts Klout recently published a list of the Top 10 colleges ranked by their influence.  Klout originally just measured Twitter influence but can now incorporate Facebook Pages, YouTube and a variety of other platforms. We don’t know if they compared non US colleges or not to get these scores (as they are all American institutions), but these are an interesting starting point for any of you who are looking to build a bigger Twitter influence and would like… Read More »

Interested to know if you have any thoughts or ideas to what we came across.
