Binsearch is a Usenet search engine launched in 2003 that allows users to search the binary and text content posted to Usenet newsgroups. Its focus is on searching files and archives posted to binary newsgroups rather than textual content.
It has a simple, easy-to-use search interface where users can enter keywords or phrases to search. There are also advanced search options like boolean operators, wildcard matching, regex matching, grouping and filtering by age or size of files. Searches can be restricted to specific newsgroups or categories.
Results are displayed with relevant metadata including subject, newsgroup, age and size information. They can be sorted and filtered based on various criteria. Individual files and attachments can be previewed and downloaded easily from search results.
Binsearch has one of the largest indexes of binaries posted to Usenet, with over 4 petabytes of data indexed. It uses its own crawler to index new content posted to newsgroups. The interface is free to use but requires an account for accessing downloads and API access.
