GADLING'S TAKE FIVE: Week of February 4

GadlingThere was a tremendous out of activity going on here at Gadling this week. There were mentions of huge music festivals; silly hitchhiker's auctioning off their names and enough Valentine's suggestions to eliminate any and all excuses. We understand that you may have missed something in the frenzy and so now it is time to catch-up. Here are some picks hand plucked by me that are worth viewing once more.

5. How Was the NFL Experience?:
Those of use who were either snowed in or couldn't get closer than our television sets to experience some of the NFL Superbowl action down in Miami for some reason or another, can now check out Willy's play-by-play coverage for the NFL Experience. The event wasn't exactly the big game, but sports lovers may find this one inspiring enough to experience it on their own next year.

4. How Environmentally Friendly Are You? Take the Ecological Footprint Quiz:
Afraid? Be very afraid. If you think you're the environmentally friendly type take this quiz to find out just how happy or unhappy the planet is with your actions.

3. Army of Bjork:
Round of sound to Erik for giving Bjork some additional play with this video found on Travelistic. I never knew of this event until recently which looks to be held annually in Brooklyn so for all the other Bjork fans and people-watchers I hope that this one comes in handy.

2. How to Buy An Island:
C'mon, who doesn't want their own little chunk of land off a beautiful turquoise ocean? If I had the dough I'd surely grab my own tropical island or two. If you're a bit closer to making it a reality than I am check out this easy two step plan to get one.

1. Backing up your Travel Journal:
Always looking for a plan B, C, or Q to backing up your photos and precious travel works? Neil points worry-warts and smart-thinkers alike to a nice cheap gadget that can back up your goodies in addition to other back up methods. I've never heard of this one, but it sounds worth a try.
