More sites?
« on: June 19, 2006, 07:43:05 am »
I was just browsing through the Firefox extensions and noticed a "Torrent Search Bar", it uses these sites:

*Newtorrents.info
*Bitenova.nl
*MiniNova.org
*MonoNova.org
*Meganova.org
*TorrentReactor.net
*TorrentSpy.com
*BushTorrent.com
*BtBot.com
*ThePirateBay.org
*Btjunkie.org
*Bitorrent.com
*Bitoogle.com
*Flextorrents.com
*Demonoid.com
*Fulldls.com
*Isohunt.com
*Orbdesign.net
*Seedler.org
*Snarf-it.org
*TorrentBox.com
*torrentportal.com

Any worth adding?

When I was first selecting sites to include for the basic sources of Bit Che i noticed many sites seemed to share a very similar database of torrents, especially considering some only index other sites, whereas some are actual hubs like PB.. so.. I'd love to include some more sites if they dont cause a considerable overlap/duplicated results..  basically we're just going to have to do several generic searches on the different sites and compare the results to see if any of these other sites have a significant amount of new torrents.. hopefully we can get some more user feedback on this.. thanks for the list!

Ooo, that gives me an idea. You could add an option to remove duplicate torrents by comparing hash strings.

I wish that was possible to remove duplicates based on hash checking.. but that would require Bit Che to actually download the torrent for each search.. or query the web server of the souce of the torrent for the hash info.. and some sites dont even give that info..... but i just got done writing an implementation of the Levenshtein Distance Algorithm which compares the torrent names and file sizes and works as a fairly basic way to remove duplicates.. I'm rather happy with it, so I'm going to go ahead and add more sites to Bit Che even if they produce some duplicates..

I was about to ask that... uh... is there anyway the program can go online and take like txt file updates or something. So that if there are any p2p site, the person can just edit it, or recieve updates to torrent directories? That feature would make it much more appealing then normal... or am I just making things a bit too complicated?

Am I the only one here who uses oink.me.uk?  I'm kind of embarassed to admit it, but the pink layout can be changed...  ;D

Plus they have a pretty good selection, and it's usually just as good or better quaility than other trackers.
