As you may have already read on our landing page or FAQ, Clipboard is a different company today than it was yesterday. Those two links are your primary resources for learning the "how" and "why" behind the transition that we are making, and they should answer most of your questions about how these changes impact you.

Here, in this blog post, I simply want to thank everyone that made Clipboard possible. As a founder, I can't imagine a better team, in or out of a startup. Thank you Shalendra Chhabra, Steve Courtney, Mark Dawson, Brandon Hall, Tommy Montgomery, Greg Pascale, and Ken Perkins, not just for being along for the ride, but for making both the highs and the lows better in every way.

Our company advisors helped this first-time CEO avoid numerous pitfalls. Matt Jubelirer, Fritz Lanman, Tom Rubin, David Vaskevitch and Hank Vigil, thank you for your invaluable guidance and advice

Our murderers' row of investors bet on us, opened numerous doors, and cheered us on the whole time. Thank you to Acequia Capital, Andreessen Horowitz, Atlas Accelerator, Betaworks, Blake Krikorian, Code Holding, Crunch Fund, DFJ, First Round Capital, Founders Co-op, Index Ventures, Kevin Johnson, Scientia LTD, SV Angel, Ted Meisel, Tentpole Ventures, Vast Ventures and Vivi Nevo.

We were unreasonably fortunate in being selected by Apple, Google, and Microsoft at different times for different marketing campaigns. Thank you to those companies for making us look better if just by association.

Thank you also to the bloggers and press that covered us from launch to exit.

And finally, thank you, most of all, to our users. Your suggestions, content and overall engagement were the oxygen to our flame. You inspired us and we hope that in some small way we made your online life a little better, a littler more productive and a little more fun.

Peace out.

With the acquisition of Clipboard by salesforce.com, the Clipboard.com service will be discontinued on June 30th, 2013. We have added the ability to export all of your clips, boards and tags to a self-contained ZIP file that you can download to your computer.

The ZIP file also contains enough information so that it should be relatively simple for someone to write a clip importer for other services.

Export Process

To export your clips, go to your settings page (desktop only, not mobile). At the top of the page is the export section:

Today, we are excited to announce a new feature that has been a popular request from our users, file uploads. With this feature, you can upload files from your computer to your Clipboard account and easily share and view the files in your browser from any computer. To start with, we are offering every user 1GB of free storage space with an individual file upload size limit of 25MB.

We support online viewing for a variety of file formats, for example, a Microsoft Word document, a slide deck in PowerPoint or a PDF.

Using the Upload button

Select “Upload” from the “New” menu and choose the file(s) you wish to upload.

We are incredibly excited and honored to share that Clipboard has been selected as the winner of the 2013 About.com Reader’s Choice Award in the Best Business/Productivity App category. Other finalists included Dropbox, Evernote, Easilydo, and CamScanner. You can find full details of the announcement here.

We want to thank our users for their votes and support.

Happy Clipping!

We are excited to unveil our brand new clipper, based on feedback from our users. This update makes our clipper even better at saving anything from across the web, faster and easier than ever.

Notable changes in the new clipper include:

Simplified new design – No more digging for advanced features, the new clipper is presented as a bottom horizontal bar with all of the clipping modes exposed:

• Clip – The default mode. Select, or click and drag across elements on a page to save them.
• Page – Save the whole page, but this isn’t a simple bookmark, we’ll save all of the HTML to keep the page styled, links active and videos playable.
• Image – Our new mode for clipping images off the page (see below).
• Text – Select a block of text and we’ll turn it into a clip.
• Reader – We’ll strip away the styles from an article and make an easy to read clip out of it.
