Web sites for airfare research

[molly2004]

Just thought I'd pass these along. I read in the paper today that there a couple of new websites that offer historical airfare information and one that takes it a step further by predicting what airfares will be. With all the questions evolving around these topics in recent months, I thought you all might find them useful. Looks like you can only request info for a few cities so far (beta-versions) and there is a limitation on how far in advance you're looking for info.

www.farecompare.com (FYI: this site is brutally slow!)
www.farecast.com

Hope these help someone!

Farecast wasn't up for me, but the other one worked. Wasn't slow for me...very interesting to play around with.
