Alt.binz's search features for the sites such as Binsearch, Yabse and Newzleech is very well done. It's obviously taken a lot of work so far, but I think it will be an enormous task to try to stay current trying to support every current and future feature of each website.
I think that the addition of a built-in web browser window that would open the actual website when clicking on tabs of bookmarked search engine sites would be a very useful feature. (The NZBs downloaded from the search site would ideally get picked up in the download queue of Alt.bin.)
For instance, if I want to use Newzleech and search within a group or defined set of groups, or view NFOs online, or get a list of individual files contained within a collection (before downloading), or view user-uploaded "posts" or IMDB information, or skip search results twenty pages at a time, or browse groups -- then I must go to the Newzleech website to perform any of these functions, since these are outside the featureset of Alt.bin.
Also, when Alt.binz becomes a popular news client, and the search sites learn about it, the site owners are not going to be happy about having their websites "leeched" by Alt.binz's search function, since these sites are ad-supported and their ad revenue is getting cut out. Linking to the webpages does not have that problem, so site owners would almost certainly not object.
If any site get re-coded, then the alt-bin search features will no longer work, but a browser window's function would not be affected.
Since the search features are already complete (and quite well done, I must say) I'm only requesting the addition of browser windows for each of these search engine sites.
I understand that it's not hard for a user to open up IE or Firefox and go directly to these search sites separately, apart from using Alt.binz, but I think this feature will be especially useful for new users who do not yet know how to find these search sites.
