If you ever wanted to know how fast a search for flights can actually be, try Google Flights. Only US for the time being ... but this is really fast.
But what I really wanted to show is, how flight search results can be presented... Try Hipmunk.
Cool overview; excellent timeline; nice and helpful coloring. Check the above image (click to enlarge)
Also: redundant flights are being masked out, i.e. flights with the same time but different number (code sharing), or just a higher price - but you can unhide them with the dropdown to the very right.
I have yet to search a real-life flight for me to be able to judge it, but it looks promising indeed.
Also available for iPhone and iPad and Android. Granted, on sub-tablet form factors[1] this is less helpful than on PCs and tablets.
Most importantly: it got an animated chipmunk.
