Jan Gets a Blog!
I realized one of my long-time goals and launched my Girl on the Go blog covering travel-related news, events in Atlanta and relationships. Check out other blogs from travelgirl contributors here.

Ten lucky travelgirls will win a Blockbuster Escape Pass, entitling you to unlimited rentals of movies, games and TV series for an entire week! Well, you do have to rent them one at a time, but isn't this a great way to spend one of the final weeks of summer? Here's how to enter – just go to our Facebook page and become a fan of travelgirl. That's it. If you're already a fan, then you're automatically entered. Ten winners will be randomly chosen to win, and we'll announce the winners in The Scoop on August 14.

Shoot a 60-second video of the sights and sounds of your summer, post it at youtube.com and you could win $1000 weekly prize or the $5,000 grand prize.

Oscars for the Travel Industry

But for these, you get a vote. Nominees have been announced for the 16th Annual World Travel Awards, selected by travel agents worldwide. Just a few of the categories for each continent include leading airline, leading boutique hotel, leading green hotel and leading resort. Ideally, we could visit these personally for a truly informed vote, like the Four Seasons Resort Maui at Wailea pictured here, but it's still fun to look through the list and find a few favorites.

pick of the week

We really got a kick of this bright pink Yubz Talk Mobile headset and imagined ourselves confusing fellow beach-goers as we yakked on our iPhones hidden in a sand-free zone in our beach bags. Yubz, which stands for Why You Busy? designs unique but functional items for busy people. Just plug it in and you're ready to go. You can pick out the right adaptor for any type of phone when you order at www.yubz.com. The Talk Mobile is available in eight other colors, if pink isn't your style, and sells for $39.95.
