#ktrain

If you were won­der­ing what the heck #ktrain is, it’s a social exper­i­ment, born inside the Face­book Group Indi­geni Dig­i­tali to test and reverse engi­neer social Indexes scor­ing algo­rithms (k stands for Klout, the most famous of such indexes).

Since early this morn­ing dozens of tweet­ers are retweet­ing and broad­cast­ing the #ktrain hash­tag and check­ing the results on klout.com.

The rules are simple:

  1. tweet some­thing (any­thing!) using the hash­tag #ktrain
  2. reply and retweet tweets with the #ktrain hashtag
  3. rinse and repeat
  4. check out on klout what hap­pens to your social score

Bonus: get to know the com­mu­nity behind all this buzz

Here a sam­ple of such actions
oh my! klout score in free fall!


At this point you may be won­der­ing why are we doing this.
We are exper­i­ment­ing to see all the added effects of thou­sands of tweets on Klout and at which point they will start to change (if any).
We are hav­ing fun with this non­sense, it’s like a party with free beer!
