TechCrunch had a good article about search – Search Still Sucks – so the name speaks for itself. It’s an interesting piece, but I also found some good sites that I didn’t know about before.
Travel Advice – http://www.gogobot.com/ (looks better than tripadvisor but may not have reached the user breaking point)
Gadget Reviews – http://gdgt.com/
General Search – http://blekko.com/
Find anything!
Momondo.com – airline fares
Dohop.com – airline fares
Homeaway.com – home rentals
Vrbo.com
Secondporch.com
Vacationstogo.com – cruises
Cruisesonly.com
Zicasso.com – speciality travel companies for people who don’t want to
plan every aspect

From MakeUseOf Blog:
A TV schedule lets you know of all the programs that will air and
when. A similar tool is required for all live events that will occur
online; these events not only include television programs, but all
types of online events – from poker games and other sports tournaments
to multiplayer games and video conferences. Live Matrix is that tool.
I’m glad to see GSN is making it available through the web.
I’m sure everyone has heard of hulu.com by now, I use it frequently and even stream it to my PS3 using Playon. But I found another site – TV Gorge – that has even more shows, although I can’t figure out how it’s legit.
