access my hard drive with ftp
ftp = file transfer protocol
This seems a little bit involved since you have to be forwarding ports and configuring your router. I probably won't pursue this further. 10-09-2014d2028
- I should probably just get a network attached storage device or start paying for Dropbox, or Box or even paying for multiple accounts for different projects if I want to share files publicly. .; 10-11-2014d1504. Actually, probably using something like tonido will work just fine. It is possible to share a folder publicly and allow uploading. Also, you can set up some username and password. Then you could give that username and password out at places where people you want to be able to see it will see it. 10-24-2014d0057
- Another option instead of ftp would be to use pogoplug from Tonido and give away the username and password. I think this would accomplish a similar goal of sharing files with anonymous users. I could get multiple pogoplugs for different ftp-like sites since the pogoplugs seem pretty cheap.

If you are going to setup ftp, then you may want to obtain a static ip address so that you will be able to access your computer even though the ip address keeps changing if you have a dynamic ip address (which is most likely the case).
