Thought-leader @ChrisBrogan says we should stop worrying about our Klout scores, but in business, we need measures of our influence and success. What do you think? Is Klout out? http://bit.ly/nWPFL0

As far as what your actual score is - it's irrelevant. What matter's are building actual relationships and conversations. I'd rather have a tight knit group of people who I can connect with then a large group that is filled with noise that no message can be heard.

Any tips for honing in on and quantifying the parts of your job that you love and using that knowledge to find a job that is a step closer to your ideal position?
I view building a career you love as an iterative process. Through trial and error you have to 'try on' a few positions and determine what you love and are amazing at. I would have considered my current job (I work on the avionics for an unmanned plane, wow right?) a dream job while I was in school. Its my 2nd position after college.

Sometimes challenge is a significant signal of what you'll enjoy because if it's all easy it will only be enjoyable at first. Most people want to accomplish in their jobs.

After a few weeks you can really start to see a pattern and that might help give you an idea.

First, I am very amused to have just discovered that when you expand this box, the thought bubble graphic does not expand with it.
Second, how are members of this group involved with technology?

Excited to update this that I am a web manager at a non-profit now, so officially working in technology, roundabout-ly :)
