The new Sidestep
When I last used Sidestep, I liked the results, but could not stand the way the plugin worked (required download, then took over my browser whenever I did a search on another travel site). So I gave up on it and uninstalled.
Well, they've just come out witha new web-only version. No download required. And it has a nice interface when the results are displayed - you can filter flights by price range, departure time & number of stops; and hotels by price, neighborhood, and star level.
It's worth a second look, for sure.
