Corkboard lets you manage your data and works-in-progress in a new and intuitive way. It works alongside your clipboard - the place things go when you copy or paste them -to hold more data and show you exactly what's going on.
You can drag-and-drop data to Corkboard, where it will be kept for safekeeping between saves, quits, reboots, and crashes. When you need to use the data again, just drag it back out to the program that needs it. It's fast and easy. And unlike other applications, it doesn't limit you to a list of paragraphs or pictures: Corkboard leaves you free to arrange any

You can also think of Corkboard as Time Machine for your train of thought. We've all made that mistake: cut something important so we can move it, and then accidentally copy something else to the clipboard. It's an unfortunate song we've been dancing to for far too long. Corkboard helps you break the rhythm. Many more features.

Additionally, I wish the Corkboard desktop app could recognize my iOS devices, so I could just send clips to Corkboard via the iOS app without having to be on my Mac to accept them.

Quick Q: Any way to change the keyboard shortcut used to display Corkboard? F6 is too far for me to travel each time. (I tried System Prefs -> Keyboard, but can't get it to work).
Thanks y'all.

i like the concept but the software doesn't work right on my machine.
i get this error message that i don't understand.
there is no help file.
when i check functions out to see if these work, eg history, i get crap about evaluation mode, so i can't say what works and what doesn't.
i will say it's cheap enough to play with. and i like the idea of corkboard technology in something cheaper than the excellent 'tinderbox.'
this 'corkboard' isn't ready for primetime.
and there's no direct link to the software foundry from macupdate which leaves me thinking that i won't get any satisfaction from the designers.
a real pity. if these guys let me test the actual software and it worked, you'd be reading a different review. no stars.
I'm sorry you've been having trouble with Corkboard. (We don't really read MacUpdate that often so we didn't notice your comment. We usually reply to tech support e-mails within 8 hours.) Drop us a line at ayluro.com and we'll do our best to help you out.
Thanks,

FIrst, this app is probably the best clipboard manager I have ever used. I was disappointed with iClip and others, as they were too clunky to use to really augment my workflow in a meaningful way. CorkBoard is seamless in it integration into the OS - it's like having a Dashboard like app for your clipboard. Heck, it uses 64-bit technology which makes it extremely responsive. The history function is terrific and works as advertised, and retrieving old clipboard material is as easy a double clicking. This is really going to make my work a lot easier.
Second, the tech support is about as good as it gets. I found that there were some serious issues when handling tables with the app (lock ups within the app). I contacted the developer, and within a day he fixed the problem and sent me a test copy to confirm the fix. I have never had a developer do this, and I have to say it is a gratifying feeling to have such personalized attention given to me.
This is a young app in the grand scheme, so there are bound to be some bugs like the one I experienced, but the developer is obviously committed to his users and making this a top-notch mac app. I highly recommend CorkBoard to those of you looking for a clipboard managing app that has a ton of potential.

I've been using Corkboard for a month and it has become indispensable to me. The visual layout makes more sense to me than list-style pasteboards, and being able to drag text and images to the menubar icon is just so damn handy. The latest build is very stable and the developer is responsive. If you work with a lot of text clippings and images where visual re-ordering is necessary, this app is well worth today's promo price. :)
As for Leo Spill's comments about not being able to read all the text of a clipping, most pasteboards (including Jumpcut and Quicksilver's clipboard) only show a preview - full text can be displayed and edited by dragging into your text editor (as that is what text editors are for). The mottled background and icons can be changed if they bother you that badly, and the Dashboard-style HUD couldn't be more Mac-like (to me, anyways).
It is, as some other MUPromo posters mentioned, a bit short on documentation at the moment (hey, dev - a screencast would be great!), but yes, you can drag items from just about any app (not just the Finder or desktop), and URLs are clickable if you drag the favicon to Corkboard.
example: http://idzr.org/pu86
I don't regret this purchase a bit, and no, I am not affiliated with the dev - just a happy customer :)
