Hi - I have a client that invited me to share documents on box.net - I was pleased to know that there was a playbook app , which gave me a free 50g upgrade simply for using playbook! So easy now to view their documents anytime anywhere with no hassle.
With all that space I would like to create separate folders for each client - how do I keep them separate to assure that collaborators cannot view other client's files or even directories? Thanks in advance for your help.

Well, to satisfy both your curiosity and mine, I collaborated with MYSELF (another email) and the only folder I could see when I logged in was the one I specifically shared. You or the person you are sharing with do have to create an account to get in as what I'd call a collaborator. I was also able upload a file to that shared folder from my 2nd ID (the collaborator account). So it looks as if you can segregate who gets to see what.
I will say that with my dsl account, it is slow going uploading stuff to the box. Last week I uploaded a folder of photos and it took a few hours.
Thanks F2 - it is indeed slow - I thought it was my slow upload speed, as I got cheaper dsl for slow upload as I don't upload a lot, not sure if it's that or if it's box.net - last night I fell asleep as I was uploading 2 gigs of data...almost done when I woke up. I wonder if drop box and such is the same?
i tried to load some movies and such a little while and noticed it was much slower than dropbox was for me. So i still just use dropbox with 20GB space over the 50 from box for now
