Would love a Windows sync! Religiously use Pastebot Sync on my mac, but once I get to work I experience a loss in productivity.

Please please please make a winsync!!

This is an awesome software. It work just as expected with everything you need. On the other side, it lack things that you don’t really need but would like to have as a bonus. So…. Whishlist:

1. Windows Support. That would be very nice for non OS X users.
2. Clipboard synchronization. I’d love if it could sync with multiple computer AT THE SAME TIME and not one OR the other. That way, I could copy stuff from my desktop and paste it on my laptop :D
3. Support for creating our own filters using Regex

I use it a lot for copying multiple things into Twittelator:

1) Oh look – a post I want to tweet about!
2) Copy a quote, for example.
3) Fire up PasteBot.
4) Go back to Safari and copy the URL.
5) Fire Up Twittelator and start a new tweet.
6) Paste the URL.
7) Fire up PasteBot and click the quote.
8) Fire up Twittelator and paste the quote.

It works great and is so much simpler than any other way.

I would love to be able to sync Mac-to-Mac, and for that matter, Mac-to-PC across the cloud. Take my clipboard anywhere! But even so, it’s one of my essential apps now.

First off, I just want to say that I think Pastebot is the de facto example of what an app should be. It performs one function incredibly well, is zippy, and stable. Great job guys! Now if you really wanna see what I use it for, check out the post I did on your product and mine and my girfriend’s website :p http://geekspodcast.com/2010/01/21/hands-on-with-pastebot-for-iphone/

Simply awesome. I was always looking for an app like Pastebot didn’t discover until l saw a review from Smoking Apples Blog today. I am always pasting links, maps and etc. Before i keep on sending via mail thats long gone now from today. In the future I would love to see Pastebot would work via 3G too.Ability to send v-card and open a link via Safari on iPhone.That would be an icing in the cake for me. Thank you and keep up the good work.

Slick useful app – a must-have!
Please make it sync with Tiger… other apps can (you can do it, too)!!! In the meantime I have to use Dropbox for photos which is great at a distance but lame up close.

First of all…wow….genius. The aesthetics…the functionality. I just downloaded it today. And it worked exactly as I imagined. My wife was driving some distance to get some groceries and I decided to do some work on my macbook. While going down the road I realized I needed some text from the net, so I quickly created a computer-to-computer network between my iphone and macbook., snagged the text with my iphone, and copied the text right into my doc. Sweet. I’m very interested to see how pastebot progresses.

Whenever I have to go to a new place, I check the map online and copy the image to Pastebot and use it as reference on my way there.

After finding out, Pastebot has an url handler, I simply modified the del.icio.us bookmarklet, copied it to the iPhone via Pastebot and now I have a bookmarklet in mobile safari that sends the url to Pastebot.
From there I can copy it to the Mac and view the website on the bigger screen.

Here’s the code for everyone who is interested (hope this works in the comments):

javascript:location.href=’pastebot://’+encodeURIComponent(location.href)

Just make a new bookmark on the iPhone and paste the code in the adress field (in the edit mode).
Hope that’s usefull as for me and please build more bots. I love them!
