I’ve been maintaining a very loosely curated list of computer science educators and resources on Twitter for a while now. I make no claim that it includes everyone and I am sure I am missing some great people. I’ve really had a focus on people who create content for the K12 CS audience and a few others so there are no doubt some university faculty who should be on this list. I’m open to adding more names to the list if people let me know who should be on it.
But in the spirit of everyone else is making lists I decided to spend some time today going through that list and checking everyone’s Klout rating. Now Klout is far from perfect. If it was I’d have a higher score. 
| Name | | Klout Score |
| Sue Black | @Dr_Black | 64 |
| Peter Vogel | @PeterVogel | 63 |
| Gail Carmichael | @gailcarmichael | 61 |
| Doug Peterson | @dougpete | 60 |
| Mark Guzdial | @guzdial | 59 |
| Leigh Sudol-DeLyser | @lsudol | 59 |
| Alfred Thompson | @alfredtwo | 58 |
| Geoff Knauth | @gknauth | 54 |
| Ben Chun | @benchun | 53 |
| Eugene Wallingford | @wallingf | 53 |
| Rob Miles | @robmiles | 53 |

I need to work on my klout rating. :)
They have the highest Klout scores (of the people you sampled). It does not follow that they are the 'top' (and wouldn't follow, even if you sampled all computer science educators).
My first thought was to build a list based on my personal opinion. That would have been a much different list. I decided that Klout was at least an independent third party. I wish there were a better way to do things.
Laura your Klout rating is fine. You don't get the attention your should though. I never fail to read your blog and have you on my "Must Follow" twitter list.
