Thanks for your suggestion! I believe we may be able to support such a feature. Something like this might be sufficient:

var opts = { recursive: true, validation: true, resumable: true };
bucket.uploadFolder('./photos', opts, function(errs, files) {
  // errs is null if no errors occur on any files
  // errs is array of errors for every file that fails to upload
  // files is every file that succeeds in uploading
});

The only issue I can see with this is that it will be hard to measure progress of such uploads (which could be long running) without any sort of stream interface. We might be able to do some sort of "progress stream" like:

var progress = bucket.uploadFolder(/* ... */);
progress.on('error', errCallback);
progress.on('fileEnd', aSingleFileDoneCallback);
progress.on('end', allFilesDoneCallback);

Until then you could probably get by with something like this which should in theory upload all files in a particular folder (non-recursively):

var fs = require('fs');
var async = require('async'); // npm install async
var bucket = storage.bucket('my-bucket'); // need to inititialize storage beforehand (see docs)
var contents = fs.readdirSync('./path/to/folder'); // get contents of folder (files and folders)
var files = contents.filter(function(file) {
  return fs.statSync(file).isFile(); // filter out only files
});
async.each(files, function(file, cb) {
  bucket.upload(file, cb);
}, function(err) {
  // all files should be uploaded now assuming there were no errors!
});
