I like to go back to what I copied 10 mins ago. Just text will do - great for copying colours etc. iSnip seems/seemed to be the best at this, but it needs an update as it's not Universal and it crashed on one of the updates. The developer is doing something else I think, but it just needs picking up by someone else. My next try is TextExpander. Quicksilver - in the nature of what it does, immediately sort of says - "What is all this about then?" Step over the geek edge. Maybe - it's definitely looking over the edge!

I love it mostly for typing in folder names and accessing them quick as I always have my fave shortcuts too full for folders I access a lot. And I do use the flickr one as I don't even have to open my browser. I would like to see some Facebook plugins please. :D iSnip. What's that then? Not heard of that one. hmm… you think it’s a step over the Geek edge?

I've tried it on numerous occasions. I like the Clipboard history - but it seems buggy (Someone please resurrect <a href="http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/17045/isnip" rel="nofollow">iSnip!</a>) Maybe I'm not just geek enough.
