Aug 15	comment	What's the cheapest way to call China from the US with an AT&T cell phone? @Ankur I've done some research, and it appears that Google Voice isn't blocked. That means an account set up in the US can be accessed from China. As I noted you can't use a physical phone to call via GVoice in China.

Jul 7	comment	a webservice for finding the flights by country Not sure it's a 100% match, but I think good answers to this would likely be answers to mine as well.
Jul 3	comment	How can I do a “broad” search for flights? Too broad :P I'm sure it would be useful for smaller countries though.

Jul 3	comment	How can I do a “broad” search for flights? Hmm, just discovered the option to lump +/- 3 days and other dates into one search. Awesome. This and ITA seem to be equally good. For my next trip I'll attempt to plan with both and see what's more helpful.
Jul 3	comment	How can I do a “broad” search for flights? Not bad. Seems to have multi-airline combinations for cheaper than Kayak, but you can't purchase directly so I'm assuming that it's not counting some fees. This and Kayak seem to be equally good. For my next trip I'll attempt to plan with both and see what's more helpful.
Jul 3	comment	How can I do a “broad” search for flights? Being able to search only airports in a particular city isn't quite broad enough for me. Especially since in the case of Toronto there are very few flights, and even fewer cheap flights, out of the smaller airport.
Jul 3	comment	How can I do a “broad” search for flights? @hippietrail Any good site will be intermational, and my example involved Canada to the US. I had problems with Amadeus below not checking all sites/airlines (even the ones it said it would) but Kayak worked properly, fortunately.

Jun 30	comment	How can I do a “broad” search for flights? Hmm, Kayak seems to work much better, oddly enough! It's also very fast, and while it doesn't show +/- 3 days lumped into one search the dropdown is neat. (The remembered prices from previous searches in the drop down are incorrect though ... hmm.) So not perfect, but very good! +1, I'll hold on acceptance to see if there are any other answers.
