Yeah, Hipmunk is really great. The experience is so good I actually sort of wish I flew more often... or at least had to schedule flights more often.

It'd be cool if they could handle other itinerary and reservation tasks. Though I don't know how they'd necessarily make money like that.

I tried Hipmunk for the first time last week. I really enjoyed searching flights by "agony". Unfortunately I learned the hard way that all Delta flights should be put at the very end of the list when sorted in such a way.

Man, the arbitrary downvoting on HN is starting to get out of control.

Well, the money's in hotel reservations, so I guess it's in the pipeline.

Hipmunk already does hotels: http://www.hipmunk.com/hotels

Exactly, which I'm curious if GOOG will incorporate hotel reservations in it all.

Man Google has it covered. I'm trying hard to think of an online space they're not in.

Actually google does hotel pricing already in maps. It's not super obvious, but do a search for "hotels in San francisco" and you should see some prices

I guess you gotta start thinking offline, then. inb4 Google buys your company ;p

I smell fresh acquisitions in the air.

Or, another failed startup. This is the scary road you tread when you're in a space that might raise the eyebrows of a company like Google. High risk, high reward. I wish them luck!
