Deal of the Day – PogoPlug $48

 PogoPlug

I’ve been meaning to do a writeup on how I use my 1st Generation Pogoplug here at the GeekTonic Home and just haven’t gotten around to it.  Basically PogoPlug handles some of my backup tasks, random media sharing and other tasks with my external USB hard drives  I keep it in the basement out of the way while it keeps those extra hard drives connected to the web & network for me.  In the meantime I came across a very good deal on the PogoPlug at Amazon.

What does PogoPlug do?

  • Pogoplug lets you connect to any external hard drive and then access and share content through the internet
  • Stream videos, music and photos directly to your iPhone, Blackberry, Droid and other mobile devices
  • Works with Safari, Firefox 3, IE 7, IE 8 and Chrome Web Browers. MS Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7, Mac OS X 10.4 and above

Pogoplug Multimedia Sharing Device $47.99 at Amazon & Buy.com.  Typically sells around $100 which is what it costs at NewEgg right now.

More info on PogoPlug is available at their website
