Flexible travel date feature

US is my carrier of choice and they have a "my travel dates are flexible" option button. I want to check fares on various other carriers to see when fares might be lower so I can plan around low fares. Can't seem to find any similar feature on Delta, AA, UAL, am I missing it?
Even Expedia,SideStep, etc. wants you to plug in dates.
Thanks in advance!

Well. I do know that Travelocity lets you do the flexible travel date as well. I find them very useful. And yes I don't think AA and the likes have that feature...

On Expedia.com, use Airline Fare List. Enter origin/destination, and the fares for each airline show up.

The Orbitz betatest website:
http://beta.itasoftware.com/servlet/cvgdispatch/

allowed you to search previous and next day for each of your departure and return dates -- a feature not ultimately included at orbitz.com...

Fare Browser at the MoonlightLabs.com site (shortcut: http://www.moonlightlabs.com/farebro...ebrowser.html) gives you the ability to be flexible or specific on carrier, date and destination. Very handy!

Just what I needed! Thanks to all.
I especially like the Moonlabs "warnings" alert on layovers, tight connections,prop plane, etc.
