Corkboard

Corkboard is a cool tool that helps you manage your data and projects in a really easy way. Designed for Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard, it brings some neat features to make your life simpler.

How Corkboard Works

This software works alongside your clipboard—the spot where everything goes when you copy or paste. But here’s the kicker: it holds onto more information and gives you a clear view of what’s happening with your data.

Drag-and-Drop Made Easy

You can easily drag and drop stuff into Corkboard. It keeps everything safe even if your computer crashes or you close the program. When you need that info again, just drag it back out to the app you’re using! Corkboard is quick, straightforward, and user-friendly.

A Common Mistake

We’ve all been there—accidentally cutting something important and then copying over it by mistake. It's an annoying cycle we've dealt with for years. But guess what? Corkboard helps break that cycle!

Keep Your Data Safe

If there's something you want to keep, just paste it into Corkboard or drag it right from any app. Even if Corkboard doesn’t recognize that type of data, it'll still save it for you. You won't have to worry about losing anything ever again!

Utilizing Mac Technology

Corkboard uses the latest tech from Apple's operating system, Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard. Thanks to Core Animation and Core Image, you'll enjoy smooth visuals like those in Dashboard or Time Machine.

Smooth Performance

The windows in the background softly blur out so they don’t distract you while working. If your Mac isn’t super powerful, no worries—Corkboard automatically adjusts these effects to keep things running smoothly.

64-Bit Support Advantage

If you're using a Mac with a PowerPC G5 or Intel processor like Core 2 Duo or Xeon, you'll get extra performance from Corkboard's 64-bit support! Most apps run on 32-bit but Corkboard is built for 64-bit from the ground up.

More Storage for You!

This means you'll have way more space for all those clippings just a keystroke away—it's pretty awesome! Developers can also take advantage of Corkboard with its rich plug-in framework that allows adding new data types.

For Developers Too!

You can include Corkboard interpreters in application bundles just like Spotlight importers and Quick Look generators do!
