I suggest that you give us an easier way to add/upload multiple files (or a whole folder) in one step via the Web Client. The present system asks you to browse for each individual file to be uploaded, which is a painful process!!

If someone wants to share a folder with us, let's say a music album, they have to add to the upload window each individual file by browsing for them one at a time. Adding ten files (an average music album) is a long process. If they want to upload a folder which may have 50 pictures, then the process will take forever!

Add your comments here if you agree.

At this time the only way they could really do that is by having them install the Pogoplug drive app and upload that way. I agree it would be easier if they could do it via the web app.

Yes, that;s the way I do it, though with plenty of problems (see http://www.pogoplugged.com/forum/thread/12068/Thumbnails-Revisited/ )

This approach wouldn't help, however, with the second situation - someone with whom I'm sharing a folder, and who would like to add / upload / contribute many files to share with me...

I agree that this is a very desirable feature.

I've seen only a couple of posts about writing applications using the web api maybe this would be a good project for someone?

Hey Folks,

We agree that this is a desirable feature, and it is one that we are currently working on. I think it's safe to say that you'll be seeing it in an update to the web service in the not-too-distant future (can't be any more specific than that at the moment).

Any news on this? Having just got my plug, and for some computers I use having the web-interface as the only viable interface, being unable to upload multiple files easily (without individually selecting hundreds of files) is going to be a major limit on how much I use this.

You can select multiple files at one time or all (ctrl-A) from within a folder but you can't just select a folder and have it create the folder and copy all the files to it. Which is what I would like it to be able to do.
