We say BMW, you say... So here we have the kind of real-time social engagement that the Internet originally promised us. A site called Brandtag allows you to enter a 1-word attribute for a brand -- like "quattro" for Audi -- and then creates a page with the popularity of any brand identifier denoted by its size on the page relative to every other tag used, i.e. a tag cloud. For instance, one of the biggest words on the Ferrari page is "red," while one of the many smallest words is "viagra." Generic descriptors seem to take...

Which Is The Better Car? 2008 BMW 135i vs. 335i Review After testing BMW 135i and 335i coupes back-to-back, I can reveal that there are only two good reasons to purchase the smaller, cheaper car.

So we rolled up our sleeves and dug past some of the usual disqualifiers to focus on concepts like pure performance and fun factor. Which is how we arrived at the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution MR-two extra doors, two fewer cylinders... Article added: 2008-04-13 17:14:11 Article Views Rating: 188 |
