POWER OF ATTORNEY

          The undersigned hereby constitutes and appoints each 
of Burke F. Norton, Amy E. Weaver and Michael S. Marron, 
signing singly, as the undersigned's true and lawful 
attorney-in-fact to:

(1)       execute for and on behalf of the undersigned, in the 
undersigned's capacity as an executive officer of 
Expedia, Inc. (the "Company"), Forms 3, 4 and 5 in accordance 
with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and 
the rules thereunder (the "Exchange Act") and Form ID to obtain 
EDGAR codes and related documentation for use in filing Forms 
3, 4 and 5;

(2)       do and perform any and all acts for and on behalf 
of the undersigned which may be necessary or desirable to 
complete and execute any such Form 3, 4 or 5 or Form ID, 
complete and execute any amendment or amendments thereto, and 
timely file such forms with the United States Securities and 
Exchange Commission and any stock exchange or similar 
authority;

(3)       take any other action of any type whatsoever in 
connection with the foregoing which, in the opinion of such 
attorney-in-fact, may be of benefit to, in the best interest 
of, or legally required by, the undersigned, it being 
understood that the documents executed by such 
attorney-in-fact on behalf of the undersigned pursuant to this 
Power of Attorney shall be in such form and shall contain such 
terms and conditions as such attorney-in-fact may approve in 
such attorney-in-fact's discretion; and 

(4)       seek or obtain, as the undersigned's attorney-in-
fact and on the undersigned's behalf, information regarding 
transactions in the Company's securities from any third 
party, including brokers, employee benefit plan administrators 
and trustees, and the undersigned hereby authorizes any such 
person to release any such information to such attorney-in-
fact and approves and ratifies any such release of 
information. 

          The undersigned hereby grants to each such 
attorney-in-fact full power and authority to do and perform 
any and every act and thing whatsoever requisite, necessary, 
or proper to be done in connection with the exercise of any 
of the rights and powers herein granted, as fully to all 
intents and purposes as the undersigned might or could do if 
personally present, with full power of substitution or 
revocation, herby ratifying and confirming all that such 
attorney-in-fact, or such attorney-in-fact's substitute or 
substitutes, shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue 
of this Power of Attorney and the rights and powers herein 
granted.  The undersigned acknowledges that the foregoing 
attorneys-in-fact, in serving in such capacity at the 
request of the undersigned, are not assuming, nor is the 
Company assuming, any of the undersigned's responsibilities 
to comply with Section 16 of the Exchange Act.

          This Power of Attorney shall remain in full force 
and effect until the undersigned is no longer required to 
file Forms 3, 4, and 5 with respect to the undersigned's 
holdings of and transactions in securities issued by the 
Company, unless earlier revoked by the undersigned in a 
signed writing delivered to the foregoing attorneys-in-
fact. 

          This Power of Attorney does not relieve the 
undersigned from responsibility for compliance with the 
undersigned's obligations under the Exchange Act, including, 
without limitation, the reporting requirements under 
Section 16 of the Exchange Act.  Additionally, although 
pursuant to this Power of Attorney the Company will use 
commercially reasonable best efforts to timely and 
accurately file Section 16 reports on behalf of the 
undersigned, the Company does not represent or warrant 
that it will be able to in all cases timely and 
accurately file Section 16 reports on behalf of the 
undersigned due to various factors, including, but not 
limited to, the shorter deadlines mandated by the 
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, possible time zone 
differences between the Company and the undersigned and 
the Company's need to rely on others for information, 
including the undersigned and brokers of the 
undersigned.

          IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned had 
caused this Power of Attorney to be executed as of 
this 18 day of September 2008.


                         /s/ Jeffrey W. Diana
