Today is a big day for Klout. The social influence calculator just added five new networks to its algorithms, bringing their measurement possibilities to 10 total networks. Adding Tumblr, Blogger, Flickr, Last.fm and Instagram to the already-included Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Foursquare and YouTube means that some Klout users are about to see a huge jump in their scores. The staff blog reminds users that “connecting an account will never lower your Score, but it may increase it as we can give you credit for your influence in that network.” TechCrunch notes that Google+ is still missing from the list but that it should be on its way soon.

Klout, the social influence measuring service, just released some new data on how phone preference correlates with influence: Blackberry users score highest, with an average Klout score of 43.6. Klout users with iPhones score an average of 42, and Android owners come in last at 40.6. The scores rank between 1 and 100 and are calculated based on social networking interactions like replies and retweets. Gizmodo theorizes that RIM devotees are more influential because Blackberry owners tend to be “corporate executives, often C-level types” and thus engage in more professional online chatter.

Klout, the social influence calculator, has added another network of information to their algorithms: Klout users can now link their YouTube accounts to their Klout scores. Users’ Klout can now be calculated through data from Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Foursquare and YouTube. Mashable reports that the company is planning to add Google+ data to its algorithm once Google releases its APIs.

Virgin America is partnering with Twitter analytics service Klout to determine who some of the most influential Twitter users in Toronto are.  Those influential Toronto Twitter users will be given free flights.

Klout, a company that measures the influence on Twitter users has raised $1.5 million in Series A from Allen Morgan (Mayfield Fund), Paige Craig, Nova Spivack (Lucid Ventures), Zelkova Ventures, Tom McInerney, Michael Yavonditte (Quigo Technologies), and Ofer Ronan.
