Clipboard Sharing via Rendezvous

Posted by pudge on from the mmmm-clipboards dept.

DrC writes "ClipboardSharing lets you send your clipboard between Mac OS X computers. You can use it to send or download almost anything that can be copied to a clipboard, including formatted text and images, and because it uses Rendezvous to find computers on the local network it is very simple and efficient to use. It is designed to be used from the menu bar, so it doesn't take space and it's always available." I used to have something thrown together for this in Mac OS, nice to see something easy to use for Mac OS X.

    Good lord, how can a free market economy allow something so COMMUNIST to exist?

    Think about it. I'm reading a web page or an ebook, and NOTHING stops from copying some of the text and making it available for all my pirate friends.

    I bet this piracy tool even allows for cutting and pasting STYLED text over the network. With such easy availability of copyrighted works, the publishing industry will CRUMBLE.

    I hope they put the author of this tool in jail, PRONTO.

    OH GOD I just realized you can cut and paste IMAGES and AUDIO on the Mac! This is HIGHLY DANGEROUS! Napster was nothing compared to this!
