I’ve toyed with multi-clipboard apps in the past, but I think I’ve finally found one I’m going to stick with in shadowClipboard. I really like the implementation, and so far prefer the simple interface to the advanced interface.
I’m a productivity tool junkie, but a very particular one. I probably ditch 90% of the software I evaluate because of the chosen implementation, lack of elegance, etc. It’s high praise from me when I include shadowClipboard in the same sentance as LaunchBar and Path Finder (and one other that I can’t talk about yet) as enhancements/tools I use without thinking about them - tools that let me to do things faster and more efficiently.
Even though I’m only using shadowClipboard on two machines (my Quad and my PowerBook)1, I decided to buy the “group” license and reward the stupidFish folks an extra $5 for a job well done. 
If you use a Mac, check out shadowClipboard.
- And I don’t really need the “shared clipboard across machines” feature since I only use one at a time. [back]

Oh, what a tease! I hate that! Hopefully we’ll get to hear about that other productivity booster soon.

The first versions of this application were buggy but I was told they would get better and newer features would come. So I held out. It never really got better, but newer features did come. With a price. So when I went to complain about it over at MacUpdate the author or someone the author knew created a fake account with a stupifish email account. I know this because I saw it before he had a chance to hide it. So after several emails with MacUpdate they admitted that this indeed was the case, and said comments were deleted. (I wish they would have kept them, but they wanted to pretend like it didn’t happen”
But that isn’t the problem. Said author refuses to admit anything of the like happened. And has lied about it ever since.
DO NOT do business with this shady “company” run by a spineless weasel who’s main concern is to get as much money from you as possible.
This is commercial software tagged as “shareware” to fool people into believing you’ll only have to pay once.
