Torrent Searcher: Multi-engine BitTorrent search

by Jordan Running on January 4, 2006 at 05:10 PM

Sites that integrate several search engines into one interface are about as old as search engines themselves, but Torrent Searcher is pretty handy. Not only does it let you search among 13 different BitTorrent search engine from one page, it also lets you reorder the list of search engines so you can put your favorites at the top. A small innovation, but a good one. Now a Firefox sidebar version would be really handy.

I saw this on Digg. This site's interface is terrible.

It's not even remotely innovative or difficult to put together. Anyone with a small knowledge of HTML can make one of these and they have.

What would be more interesting is a site which searches all of the torrent sites and then combines the search results into one.
