If you answer a lot of email like we do, \t\tor find yourself typing the text over and over again, like “Yours truly” \t\tor “Get lost”, then you’re frustrated because Windows Clipboard can only \t\tstore one thing at a time. That’s why, if you’re typing the same text \t\tover and over again, you need some kind of clipboard extender. Well, we \t\thave some kind of clipboard extender. Talk about serendipity. It’s your \t\tlucky day. It’s time to buy a lottery ticket.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

For example, \t\tEB constantly emails me. Rather than actually taking time to answer her \t\temail, I just use xNeat Clipboard Manager to send her a canned response. \t\tThis keeps her happy because she thinks I’m actually typing these \t\tanswers,\u00a0 and it ensures my paycheck each week. If there’s any money left \t\twith which to pay me, that is. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Ahem….things are tough all over in these \t\ttroubled times. But at least I don’t have to waste my time answering EB \t\teach time she writes. I just open up my xNeat Clipboard and paste in an \t\tappropriate response.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Here’s an example of how I placate EB with \t\tmy\u00a0 canned responses. Instead of wiping the sweat off my beaten brow \t\tand pecking around the keyboard, I \t\tsimply fire-up my trusty xNeat Clipboard Manager and find a response \t\tthat fits the bill and paste it, like this:<\/p>\n

\nDear TC,<\/p>\n

All of her mails are answered, EB is happy \t\tand I’m happy. I can get some work done. See? It’s win-win situation.<\/p>\n

Now that we’ve demonstrated some of the \t\twonderful things you can do with a clipboard manager, let us say that \t\txNeat Clipboard Manager is one of the slickest ones we’ve ever used. You \t\tcan even adjust the number of clips you want it to save. xNeat will save \t\tyour clips for you for as long as you like. Certainly sometime next \t\tweek, EB will write me a similar email and I’ll just pick out a nice reply clip and paste it \t\tin and fire back an answer. It takes only a second and keeps her in \t\tline and happy. And I can get back to mining salt or drinking Bloody Marys \t\tdepending on what day it is.<\/p>\n

Yes, I know, I’m gesticulating while I \t\tbabble. So, to \t\tprevent you from being totally irritated with me, and avoid hearing all \t\tof your sighs, I will bow out and present to you Mr. xNeat and his crew, \t\twho will tell you about xNeat Clipboard Manager. Take it away xNeat boys \t\tand girls:<\/p>\n

“Windows clipboard has the disadvantage \t\tthat you can only copy once before pasting, xNeat Clipboard Manager \t\tsolves such problem by keeping track of all your copied items and giving \t\tyou quick access to them.<\/p>\n

xNeat clipboard manager is handy and very simple to use. it captures \t\tclipboard items as they are copied to the Windows Clipboard, and you can \t\tsimply bring up a menu containing all the previously copied items and \t\tselect the item you want to paste from it using a hot key.<\/p>\n

For regularly used text you can make it permanent in xNeat clipboard \t\tmanager’s menu by right clicking on it, then select Make Sticky, you can \t\talso delete any item as well.”<\/em><\/p>\n

So short and sweet. You’d think I’d learn \t\tfrom these folks. Anyway, \t\t there’s a little video on the xNeat site<\/a> you can watch that shows \t\tyou how \t\tthe program works. If you’d rather just read about and\/or download xNeat Clipboard Manager, \t\tyou may do so \t\tby visiting the xNeat Clipboard Manager home page<\/a>.
