Could you imagine what can you do with Powershell? I imagined to create a search engine with Powershell. I used Google for Search and filtered results. Looking codes would be helpful you to have an idea about Google Parsing.

I search for Dressy Bessy – New Song:

Did it match with Keywords?

You can see my Powershell script. Default search is a Turkish Music Group “Gece” and their Album “Icinde Sakli”. You can change default search parameters from script. Also adding more Google page would be increase accurate.

I used Google.com.tr to Search Mp3. I hope Google will get banned by ASCAP :D

As always: Go to Hell Google!
