 <description>&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear amazing women of BlogHer, We are building a new search engine to deliver quality in search. Come and test drive us at &lt;a href=&quot;http://hakia.com&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;hakia.com&lt;/a&gt; with your health queries. How did we do? Tell us by clicking on the “&lt;a href=&quot;http://survey.hakia.com/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;feedback&lt;/a&gt;” button on our search results page. Give us your feedback and be part of something new! &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For us, a quality search result simultaneously satisfies three criteria: It (1) comes from credible, librarian-recommended sources (&lt;a href=&quot;http://company.hakia.com/verticals.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;verticals&lt;/a&gt;); it (2) represents the most recent, freshest information available; and, it (3) is absolutely relevant to your query. For example, to ensure credibility in Health vertical, hakia provides results from sources that have met the quality criteria set forth by the Medical Library Association. We are continuously adding more vertical content and more verticals. We want searchers to benefit from a different worldview on Web information --not just what is popular. What do YOU want? If you don’t have time to fill out the &lt;a href=&quot;http://survey.hakia.com&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;survey&lt;/a&gt;, look out for us at the BlogHer &#039;08 Conference to give us feedback or your piece of mind. We will be there! See you at the conference and happy searching at hakia.com, Ms. Melek Pulatkonak President &amp;amp; COO hakia.com&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;Dear amazing women of BlogHer,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;BlogHer ’07 was an overwhelming and invigorating experience for me, a place to literally soak in the positive energy. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;Many of the amazing women I met had stretched their budgets to attend the conference. So this year, hakia would like to take the funds we would normally use to exhibit and instead send &lt;b&gt;YOU&lt;/b&gt; to soak in BlogHer ‘08.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;Enjoy the conference!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Happy searching at hakia.com, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;span&gt;Ms. Melek Pulatkonak&lt;br /&gt;President &amp;amp; COO &lt;br /&gt;hakia.com &lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span&gt;PRIZES &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span&gt;“Full Boat” Prize&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;3 winners: Full Conference Pass (Value=$348) and 4-Night Accommodation at the Westin St. Francis Hotel* (Value=$1,500) &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;*Does not include room charges. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span&gt;“Soak It In” Prize &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;5 winners: Full Conference Pass (Value=$348)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span&gt;“Cheers to More Winners” Prize &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;20 winners: hakia T-shirts &lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span&gt;HOW TO ENTER TO WIN &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;As easy as 1-2-3&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
