Travel Search Doesn't Have To Suck: Hipmunk.com!

Hipmunk.com, this week's "Website We Can't Get Enough Of" is a neat way to search for flights and hotels: it has the ability to sort your results by agony. What does agony mean in this context, you ask? It's a combination of price, duration, and number of stops. You know, all those things that make you insane when you travel!
