I don't know anything about Adam and the team at Hipmunk, but I no longer even consider other sites when it comes to searching for flights. The people who I've recommended Hipmunk to have said the same. Their focus on user experience is (even for a startup) uncanny. The word disruptive is thrown around a lot and often way out of context. I believe Hipmunk and Airbnb are actually disruptive.

Rock on. Thanks for recommending us. And so you know, Steve Huffman (Adam's cofounder) cofounded reddit with me. We also recently brought on Chris Slowe (keysersosa), our first addition to team reddit. http://www.businessinsider.com/reddit-chief-christopher-slowe-jumps-ship-joins-old-boss-at-hipmunk-2010-11 http://www.businessinsider.com/reddit-chief-christopher-slow...

My gf said she couldn't figure it out. I seriously almost broke up with her on the spot. I LOVE hipmunk.

  You chose wisely, aberman. In the event that she breaks up with you, though, email me (alexis@hipmunk.com) your mailing address and I'll send you something from the hipmunk to ensure you get through the trauma.

    Clearly I need to acquire and dispose of a g/f quickly so that I can get hipmunk swag _ Btw: used you guys to get an upcoming ticket to Malaysia. Love the service :)

      Haha! Well, If anyone is reading these comments - you can email me your mailing address too. No break-ups required! We don't want to encourage anything like that :) Enjoy the trip to Malaysia! Can't wait to visit one of these days.

        Sent. I actually got tips for the trip from Raldi on my thread in r/travel.

  That could be a sign for hipmunk guys to watch/survey how non-geeks use it. If the number of people who don't get it on first visit w/o help is higher than expected, a video or some kind of guide may be needed.

    Good point. I'd like to get this awesome demo video a fan made some more attention: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6teBPUgz4Y8 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6teBPUgz4Y8
