Announcing SharePaste.com

I often found myself in the situation where i quickly want to save whatever is on my clipboard, for example while i'm working on some code and want to remove a section but might need it later.
Sometimes i want to share whatever is on my clipboard, when i want feedback on it or when i want to send someone some code to help him out.

Now, i thought it would be handy to have an online tool for this so that i can quickly paste some text, save it and access it by a short URL so that i can share it with others.
For this reason i created SharePaste, the easy way to save and share your clipboard contents.

SharePaste.com

It provides you with a straight forward interface that allows you to paste and save your text within seconds.
There is support for syntax highlighting and in the future you have the ability to register yourself to keep track of previous pastes.
The tool is still in early beta and registration is not available yet, but it's already very usefull.

Here is a short overview of SharePaste's features:
- Save any text that is on your clipboard
- Share your pastes using their unique, short URL
- Access your saved pastes any time
- Apply syntax highlighting to your pastes
- Find your pastes back by searching on their tags (not yet implemented)
- More features are coming!

And here is one example of what a paste looks like: http://sharepaste.com/p/giD3B7.

I hope you like it and find it as usefull as i do!
