If you use more than one computer and they are not complete duplicates when it comes to the tools installed on each, then you may need (or just want) to share clipboard content. I have my writing and graphics tools on one machine while I have software development tools on another. I often need to write documentation (or blog) about software.

With the Windows utility “clippool“, I can share the clipboard from any machine to any other machine (as long as they are both running Windows OS. All that is needed is tool from Microsoft and the name or IP address of the “server” machine. The same tool serves as both the “server” and the “client”. It’s a whopping 35KB program.

It saves me a lot of tedious steps to get screen shots from one machine to the other.
