Alright, kids. You've got a little more than eight hours to submit your winning idea in our Layover Nation contest. At stake, as we're sure you know, is a stay at a swanky hotel in the Caribbean or one of six shiny new smartphones.

So click over to the contest page and drop your entry in the comments by 11:59 tonight. Unless of course you enjoy paying for your trips to the Turks & Caicos.

Finalists will be announced on September 5, and the winner will be declared after Michael Kinsley tries out your tips on a round-the-world trip later this fall.

OK, procrastinators. We know you've been holding onto those suggestions for our Layover Nation contest, but it's now or never. The deadline is this week, so you might as well drop your idea here to enter.

If your suggestion is top of the heap, you'll win a three-day vacay to the Turks & Caicos. Also up for grabs are six new Palm smartphones so you can stop waiting in line for that second-gen iPhone you want so bad.

Need tips on how to craft a winner? Look no further. Now go enter before it's too late!

The deadline for our Layover Nation Contest is July 31, and if we don't have your cool suggestions for how to kill time at a far-flung airport by then, you won't be winning a free trip to the Caribbean.

But we want you to win stuff! So Wendy Perrin, who's co-hosting this contest on her blog, put together some great tips:

· Come up with something surprising!

· Think like a storyteller

· Think internationally.

For even more specifics, click over to The Perrin Post. And once you've got your winning idea figured out, drop it here.

Earlier today, we gave you our Layover Nation Contest idea. Think you have something to top it?

Drop it here, and you could win yourself a three-day Caribbean vacay or a brand new smartphone. Just be sure to get that entry in by the end of the month.

If you still need some brainstorming help, check the links below for ideas we like. But remember! It's not what we're into that'll get you that Caribbean trip: It's all up to Michael Kinsley, who'll be trying out an idea or two on his round-the-world trip later this year.

Post your winning idea here.

Believe it or not, the deadline for our Layover Nation Contest will be here before you know it. So now's the time to submit your ideas for an interesting airport time-killer.

One reader suggested hanging with breakdancers in Old City, Philadelphia. Another thinks visiting the Narita-san Shinso-ji Temple and Park is the world's best layover. Think you have a better idea?

Drop it here, and you could win yourself a three-day Caribbean vacay or a brand new smartphone. Just be sure to get that entry in by the end of the month.
