FileSearcher BETA

Hi community,

I developed a search engine that searches through Google for the content you choose. You can choose to search for video, audio, image, torrent and compressed files.

It's really easy to use: you just have to write the word you want to find and choose the filetype and FileSearcher does the rest of the work.

Try it out and comment (all the comments are welcome, either good or bad):

http://filesearcher.portugal-a-programar.org
http://filesearcher.portugal-a-programar.org/video/

Hope you like it and use it regularly for your searches. Any doubt or something, just post it.

I didn't understand the combo box idea? Do you meant a combo box that lets you choose the language you want to search in Google?

I will make some improvements in the next few days and add some other more advanced options to the search engine. I'll also release other kind of search services that search for a variety of media including text, blog posts, forums search, etc.

When I apply those changes I notify the community here in the thread.

what i meant was, currently you are using http://www.google.pt/ , put a combobox(or dropdown control) on your page which allows you to select english or portugese. If english is selected it will use http://www.google.com if portugese is selected it will use http://www.google.pt unless of course you want to cut out english speaking end-users.

You're right. I will apply those changes immediately.

Thank you for the suggestion...
