I see it all the time on Twitter with people bantering and begging celebrities for "follows" so they can look cool because they are "friends" with Kanye West. I guess it doesn't matter where and what type of equal system is set up to connect us all there will always evolve a pecking order from the mirk that is equality. If you believe in evolution that is. ;) I definitely see where things could start to go down hill.

I just learned about the true purpose of klout today and I can see its promising applications as it evolves. I do agree with most of those you interviewed in the fact that klout alone will not and can not determine a person's overall true influence once you factor in everything else like timeliness, relevance, and like-ability. Overall I like the concept of klout but am eagerly anticipating the evolution and mas integration of it all. I currently have a clout score of 27. It says I'm on my way up so I hope this helps.
