We love this travel search engine for the same reason we loved our Palm Pilot: it does one job really well. Plug in your travel dates and the site will cull options from popular travel sites like Orbitz and Travelocity, travel consolidators such as Airfares.com and the airlines (both U.S.- and foreign-based) so you don't have to.
First, a caveat. This is not a directory of the 50 greatest websites ever. Rather, it's a tally of the best sites launched or piqued our interest in some way since last year's list. Think of it as our round-up of 50 nifty links we think you should check out. So get clicking!
