Twitter Restricting “Under-Age” Content

BuddyMedia has partnered with Twitter to block certain brands for the under-age demographic on Twitter. CNET reports BuddyMedia has worked out an age-verification process before users can see “adult-like” brands. The most popular adult-like brands would be liquor companies. Twitter and BuddyMedia have said this is a great way for companies to not have to worry about in-house screening policies when discussing products on Twitter.

My Kred on the Web

Kred is composed of two scores: Influence and Outreach. We selected these because they reflect Trust and Generosity, the foundations of strong relationships.

Influence is the ability to inspire action. We measure this through by assessing how many retweets, replies, mentions and new follows a person receives. It is scored on a 1,000 point scale.

Outreach reflects your generosity in engaging with others and helping them spread their message. We measure this through your retweets, replies and mentions of others. Because we believe generosity is infinite, your Outreach score is cumulative and will always increase. It is scored in Outreach Levels. The current maximum is 11, and this will increase over time.
