If I am sharing with 10 friends, is there a way to see which of them is currently logged in?

@ada_potato,

There is not, actually - the system does keep track of who is logged in the website, but it doesn't really notify people of which people who are logged in have access to your shares.

It would be an interesting feature to add - one of the trickier issues with adding a feature like that is the concept of being "logged in". What would that mean when someone has folders shared to them from 100 people - are the "logged in" to each one of those people's systems? What about someone who leaves their drive app on all the time to Active Copy, but has a share from someone?

We do have long term plans to add more intelligence to the share featureset; right now it's a great way to make just about anything available to just about anyone, but we can see great possibilities for enhanced features, including tracking (how much did you download? Which files did you view?) and limiting (each user can upload / download only so much data, or use only so much of your Internet bandwidth). Perhaps real-time monitoring of sharees will be added to the list!

Best,
Jon

My ability to access the internet is sometimes severely limited due to PogoPlug traffic. User ID's and controls would be VERY helpful. Otherwise, I love the product.

With a decent router, you should be able to limit bandwidth / traffic to the IP address assigned to your Pogoplug.
