We Combine Advanced Technology + Human Analysis to Provide More Accurate, Reliable and Meaningful Data [Negative for Treximet Cardio Side Effects] “I did a little research of my own, and was a bit alarmed to come upon a forum of migraine sufferers who had tried the drug and reported tightness in the chest and other indications of cardiac disturbance . I decided to leave the Treximet in the desk, untouched. “ Blog.lazyharpy.com , published on 18-02-2009 [Positive for Treximet Effectiveness] “…I popped a Treximet , slanted my shades, closed and locked my office door, and put my head down for fifteen minutes. When my alarm went off, my head was perfectly clear . That was four hours ago.” Blog.lazyharpy.com , published on 18-02-2009 [Positive for Cardio Side Effects] “For some reason, today I picked it up.

13. Multi-Level Sentiment We’ve had our 2006 Pontiac Vibe for about two and a half years now and we recently passed 80,000km (just shy of 50,000 miles). Overall the car has been working well for us. We’ve had no mechanical issues with the car and the only real cost has been regular oil changes. Our average fuel consumption for 2008 is currently at 8.34L/100km (~ 28 MPG). This isn’t very good in my opinion but it does include winter driving with the snow tires on. One other gripe about the car is that there is a very thin layer of paint. It seems that everything causes a small paint chip. I think if you sneezed while standing within 10 feet of the car it would get a paint chip.

I’ve chatting with Lindsay on Twitter, watched as they crafted a MOMblog that actually is written by Moms about things Moms write about. It’s not just product discussion. I’m thrilled to say the Graco blog, it’s bloggers, and the other people involved in the effort are part of our community. That’s right, they did it-we gave them the secret handshake and everything. Why? They’ve engaged bloggers in conversations, events, and they kept it REAL. -- Queen of Spain
38. Graco Case Study: Parenting 1 st , Products 2 nd As a (relatively) new parent, the Graco brand certainly has made a footprint in our household. Through a new Twitter friend, I found out about the new(ish) Graco blog . As a corporate blog, this is one of the best I’ve seen yet. That’s pretty impressive considering the role the Graco Legal Department probably played in this launch, and ongoing maintenance! Here’s a few reasons why Graco is rocking this blog… -- Community Guy, Jake McKee
