The initiative, announced Wednesday, lets users give their peers a +K if that person has influenced them on a topic. Right now those topics are generated by Klout's algorithms, but the company hopes to let users submit their own topics in the future.

Users get five +Ks every day that they can give to any user in any topic. They can also give a +K to the same user on the same topic once every seven days. The rankings, like all of Klout's scores, are based on data from Twitter and Facebook.
