The Australian aborigines believe your Windows clipboard is an extension of your soul. Freud conjectured it plays the role of a computer's subconscious.
If so, then Ditto is both mind-expanding and soul-searching.
How many times have you wished you hadn't copied something into your clipboard and as a result lost that precious bit of information sitting there before? Or that you could copy several separate bits of info from one application before going to another to paste them?
Your clipboard will do the usual Ctrl-X, -C and -V after you install Ditto. However Ctrl-` will open a window showing all previous items that were there before, so you don't lose anything. You can also search for items, associate shortcuts to them etc, although I personally only use the main functionality.
Ditto is extremely unobtrusive. In fact I had to look its name up before posting this because I haven't thought of it for months. It is also highly configurable, although I haven't spent time fiddling with its options; it simply works.
