Clipboard Buddy

Clipboard Buddy

 

"Cut, copy and paste without losing your Windows clipboard data. Always emailing the same text over and over again? Load it up in the clipboard on startup. Clipboard Buddy will save you time. Use it for business, school or everyday computing. Captures text, rich text and images. View a screenshot. A number of options can be set for your working environment.

Have Clipboard Buddy hide itself automatically to the side of the screen or down to the system tray. Your twenty most recent clipboard items, (text, rich text and images), can be easily selected again for pasting. By setting a previously saved clipboard file to load at startup, you can have your most used text and images only a mouse click away. Ideal for office administrators, data processors, programmers or anyone else who uses a computer and would like to save time and keystrokes. Best of all, Clipboard Buddy is absolutely free."

The above information is from the Clipboard Buddy site. I downloaded this last week, and I love it. It has made working with my blogs so much easier.

As stated above, you may save up to twenty clips, quite long ones, too. You may choose from two colors, brown or blue, and it looks like little clipboard. I currently have it docked on the left side of my screen, but sometimes accidentally pull it out if I get too wild with mouse movements.

Clipomatic

From the Clipomatic website:

"Clipomatic is a clipboard cache program - it remembers what was copied to the clipboard even after new data is copied, and allows you to retrieve the old data. While there are many programs that do the same, none are quite so convenient, simple to use, or efficient as Clipomatic. "

I need a Clipboard helper program with all the copy/paste of URL's I do now with blogging. This appears to be a good one, but I haven't tried it yet. It is free.

SmartClose

From the Smart Close website:

"SmartClose is a free program that will automate the process of closing all running programs. It can also save the state of the system to a system snapshot, so all the programs that have been closed can be also easily restarted later by SmartClose."

This is something I needed last week when we were having severe thunderstorms and lightning in central Indiana. I was trying to shut down my computer and the process was entirely too slow. Very scary. I am going to give this a try.
