CL1P is an Online Clipboard


Sometimes, you may urgently need to share some information with a friend or family member. Or maybe you need to access a particular file from another computer. The easiest way to do this would be to use portable media like a flash drive. But what if that’s not an option? Then you have to find other means.

One way of accessing files is to use an online clipboard like CL1P. This website allows you to put up data using a unique url that you yourself choose. No sign-up or registration required.

Once the CL1P url is ready, you have plenty of options. The first thing you can do is set the clipboard to take plain or rich text formats. Alternatively, you could turn it into a messageboard. After that, you can either type in your data, or upload files and pictures. The maximum upload limit is 30 MB.

Once your clipboard is ready, simply save it. CL1P has the option of password protecting your page, which comes in handy if you want only select people to be able to view your link. CL1P pages stay active only for seven days which is a slight disadvantage if you want to keep your page around longer.

CL1P is fairly versatile. For example, a user can edit his clipboard if he wants to. Another plus point is the ability to print the clipboards. While this may not be helpful if you’ve uploaded something that cannot be printed, it’s worthwhile for text and images.

Are you comfortable with the idea of an internet clipboard? Would you use CL1P? Let me know in the comments.

    Haste is a root of problems. Furthermore, emails do that very well.

    The idea of internet clipboard is good, but looks like anyone can use email instead of this kind of service. Because it only has 30M capability which is same as maximum attachment capability of gmail. Send the file directly to the persons you want is better than save to a third part website. It is a risk to share some privacy infomation on internet.

    If you want to share bigger files , than rapidshare or other file sharing service is your choice.

    Conclusion: I think I have a few chance to use this kind of service, maybe most of people also do.

    Use it often. Mostly text features (not file uplodas). Never for “risky” (private, &c.) stuff.

    Browse in one tab, keep clip open in another, click/copy/tab/paste: notes to self, links to find later. “Self destruct” convenient and liberating.

    UTF is supported – and very useful.

    Instant (text) message board can be good to “chat” on borrowed computers, and keep records for specific interactions, for a while.

    Sounds useful. There are many times when you want to share something with a group but don’t wish to reveal your email address. For instance this service would work well in a forum discussion.

    But the 7 day limitation could be a problem. They should change the model to delete say after 7 days when there has not been any access to the data.
