LOS ANGELES TIMES SERVICE

Myidealbeach.com is the best five-minute work distraction this side of a Mai Tai

What's hot: It's a quick and easy three-step questionnaire that asks your travel preferences and delivers a variety of beach resort options, whether you're traveling alone, with the kids, with friends or trying to get away for some romance. The site is powered by Orbitz, but you don't feel as though you're on the Orbitz site until the end when you select the hotel. The site suggests one ideal resort but backs it up with other recommendations.

What's not: Once we selected the ideal beach resort, we couldn't use the back browser's button to go back and see the other recommendations. Instead of staying at the My Ideal Beach site, it took us to whatever browser page we were looking at before this one -- and if we did that and then hit the forward button, it went to the beginning of the questionnaire, so we had to start all over.
