This is the software publisher's description.

The contents of the clipboard will constantly change as you use it to copy and paste information. Your data isn't stored for a long time - when you turn off the computer or just copy some other text, the data is lost.

In most cases, that isn't a problem, but have you ever needed the text you copied 30 minutes or an hour ago? Maybe your computer is hanging and the program hasn't saved the data, or maybe you copied some interesting information from a web page, but got distracted and forgot to paste it where you wanted? Or you may simply want to recall what you were doing at the computer a month or a year ago. There are many cases in which you might want to review your clipboard content.

Install Clipdiary and you will never lose data. At any moment, you can view the clipboard history, copy the item back into the cache memory or paste it into an application. All you have to do is press the "Ctrl+D" key combination or click the program icon in the system tray.

Clipdiary will record everything copied on the clipboard into its database. Clipdiary can log clipboard history and record data in several formats: plain text, RTF (Rich Text Format) and bitmap images (BMP). So, besides saving parts of text, you can easily make series of screenshots, and Clipdiary will save them for you.
