Skyscanner Releases Windows 8 App, Plans 100 New Jobs In Its Scotland HQ
Last month Skyscanner, which competes with Kayak on flight, hotel and car hire bookings, hit a nice milestetone with 11 million downloads of its free native mobile apps. Today it's adding to that with a Windows 8 version. The free app is available through the Windows Store and is - the company claims - the first app with built in free-text search. That means users can enter "Flights to Berlin next Tuesday, back a week later", rather than completing several data fields, to search for flights. Users can also pin and track flight searches to their Windows desktop through live tiles. Skyscanner's app also runs on iPhone, iPad, Android, Windows Phone and BlackBerry.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/G7ZS4DhCh8Y/
