I think our version works really nicely if you know how it behaves. So, the challenge to us is to make its behavior more obvious.

Hipmunk's calendar has changed quite a bit since we launched, and I haven't heard much complaining lately. Maybe we just scared everyone away.

Not for long!

*The results are stored in memcached and last ~24 hours. This will improve in the future.

I think the most important feature we have is that we remove about 80% of results from listings because they're totally redundant.

We also have draggable time sliders, instant sorting, and multiple searches in tabs, all of which are things we added to make finding flights less tedious.

Also, you can't book tickets on matrix...

  function countdown (num) {
      for (var i = 0; i <= num; i += 1) {
          var make_cb = function (n) {
              return function () {alert(num - n)};
          }
          setTimeout(make_cb(i), i * 1000);
      }
  }

There isn't really an analogous concept on Digg since there is no notion of hottness and links don't rise and fall. Links just appear at the top of the front page at some point.
