TorrentFreak and New Search Site

Published on August 19, 2008 by admin

Many torrent users search on just one site, like Mininova or The Pirate Bay. Some sites will let you search more than one torrent site. Usniff is a new site that has a good user interface and searches multiple sites.

If you dowload torrents then you need to subcribe to TorrentFreak. It is the best site to stay updated with BitTorrent news. They offer RSS feeds and daily email. IF nothing else, the ongoing battles between downloaders and the RIAA or MPAA is good soap opera. The following is from TorrentFreak.

Usniff, Torrent Search Made Easy

Written by Ernesto on August 17, 2008

BitTorrent’s popularity is increasing with new sites seemingly launched every day. Usniff is one such site, offering a fast real-time torrent search engine where users can search four of the most popular BitTorrent sites.

Usniff combines a great looking design with fast, real-time search results. The site currently allows users to search The Pirate Bay, Mininova, isoHunt and BitTorrent, and the search results can be sorted by file size, torrent name, search engine, upload date, peers and seeds.

TorrentFreak asked Samo, the founder of Usniff, why he started the site. “My inspiration was YouTorrent.com, before it sailed to clean waters,” he told us. “It is simple to use, responsive and has loads of good results for almost any search query. At that time I didn’t know about other similar meta-search engines, so I decided i’d try to make one myself - mostly for fun.”

The list of sites that can be searched through Usniff is currently limited to four, but Samo told us he plans to add more torrent sites in the near future. “I have not yet made a complete wish-list, but btmon.com, bitenova.nl and torrentbox.com will definitely be added in September,” he said.
