iClipBoard 1.0
Chronos has just introduced a new product called iClipBoard 1.0. This clipboard manager keeps track of what you've copied to the clipboard and makes it available in an attractive side shelf. Not only does it track the current contents of your clipboard, but it keeps a history of everything you've copied (defined by parameters you setup, and if you copy something you don't want people to know about don't worry, you can delete something from the history). The shelf also has a quick preview so you can easily find that picture or snippet of text you copied days ago.iClipBoard will go for $29.99 but is available for $19.99 until December 31st.

All of the annoying clipboard manager crap of Microsoft office, now available for twenty bucks! On my Mac, too!
Pass.

Geez! $30? Some of these Mac developers are getting a little foolish with their pricing schemes. I understand they deserve to make money for their work but let's be reasonable with a clipboard app.

Um… doesn't it sound too much like iClip in like, every possible way?

If you want a minimalist version the same thing, quicksilver does it.
If you want a more powerful version of the same thing, iClip does it better.
Sounds like this is made for a very small margin of people who want a semi-functional semi-compact clipboard manager, instead of just getting one that's great in either category.
I'd rather min-max.

Dissapointing.
I gave it a try & agree it's like iClip with a few less features.
No hot key or trigger support, no converting clips to plain text etc...
I'll stick with Quicksilver's clipboard plug-in.

... once had a clipboard manager installed, and after some hours of photoshop work, with numerous copy/paste actions it ate up all my 10 gig of left space on the HD ... can you define here the maximum snippet size?

Yes, you can "Ignore clippings larger than a user-specified size"

What a concept! I don't think it's ever been attempted before! Thanks for the ad masquerading as a post, TUAW!

Pasteboard is an excellent program for doing this with text. It's free, but it's so good I paid for the slightly enhanced version. http://pth.com/products/pthpasteboard/
BTW, these programs are much more useful than what comes with MS Office. No comparison.

I've been using Shadow Clipboard for over a year - I think I got it cheap on MacZot. It's pretty indispensible, and I like that the UI fits in well with Leopard.
