Beta Beat: Corkboard is your clipboard’s buddy

Sometimes Command-C and Command-V just aren’t suitable. You’re working on a project and want to capture a bunch of text, pictures, or cipher, and thereupon paste it into the project you’re working on. Using the Mac clipboard, you’re toggling within open applications, cutting and pasting like there’s no tomorrow. Wouldn’t it be nice to capture all of that info into one place, soon after pull it out when you’re ready to use it?

Corkboard (from Ayluro) does precisely that — you press a hot key or go a menu bar icon, and a transparent “corkboard” appears. You can either paste or drag-and-drop items onto the corkboard, next

hide it. whether your machine crashes, or whether you need to restart it, no problem — the items that you’ve pinned to the corkboard are there. When you’re ready to use those items (text, sound, pictures, etc..), just open Corkboard and drag them into the receiving app.

Corkboard accepts many types of media, and Ayluro has created a framework so other applications can work seamlessly with Corkboard. It’s currently a time-limited beta (download here) with an introductory price of $12.99. Developer Jonathan Grynspan expects the app to leave beta in early 2009. Give it a try!
