I have a site where people vote, currently if two computers that are on the same network vote, my site will see them as one computer because I only track people by IP address.

What would be a good way to track 2+ computers with the same IP address?

Hey

I hope this is the right place to put this question....
I'm trying to make a social network(Just to test what i can do), and i wanted to make a feature so that u could check if a person is online or not.
So the person could start a chat session with a user, i have no idea how u could make this. So i hope that there is some genius that will help me with this.
Thank you
