PROskore Badges: This Is Not A Game

Late last week we unveiled our first wave of PROskore badges.  The badges are designed to highlight member accomplishments  both past and present.   The purpose of the badges are two-fold:

1. Badges Bring Context to a PROskore.  For example, when viewing the profile of a person with a 'Twitter PRO' badge, it's safe to assume that they are influential on Twitter.  Or, if someone is listed as a 'Networking PRO', one can assume that person is very connected.
   
   
2. Badges Bring Credibility to a Profile.   Much like a decorated military official, badges offer a great way to make a positive first impression.
   

Unlike the typical 'fun' badges that can be earned across other networks, PROskore badges have been designed to be straight-forward and professional.  PROskore badges can also be shared across other networks, websites, blogs and more.  Below is a list of the first 8 badges that can be earned.  We plan to create more in the coming weeks.
