What are Internet Clipboards
It is a so called service which lets users to copy and paste some of the text from the internet, local computer and then lets you access it anywhere in the world through the help of internet.
There are some services which are available and allows you to do this kind of stuff and one of them which is getting a little popular is CL1P.Net and there is one PasteBin.Com, which also provides syntax highlighting and small other tools.
What are they for?
I'll rather call them NOTES or NOTEPAD or something related to that. Because the function of the clipboard is that it allows you to paste the stuff from it which is already copied and then you don't have to recopy them in order to paste it. Well, the first point which I've given can be considered a bit newbish but do you actully think that these services can be usefull or that you've not used them before?
I think we are using these kind of services from quite sometime and we all make use of it by using some other alternatives. Yes, we actually try to use these kind of note services and end up in not using it and finally use our own sweet EMAIL service. We mostly use our email and we send an email to ourselves in case we get to copy something and which we may require in future.
I think these clipboard like service are no useful if they can't be made public or you can say if they can't use that social TAG feature. Because If i happen to clip something from the internet which may be usefull then it must reach others too!
