I’ve setup cl1p.com to run a plain version of cl1p.net. It’s text only, no files or pictures. But it is fast.

It’s my first project hosted on the google app engine.

Check it out http://cl1p.com

cl1p is back up and the database is restored.

The server where cl1p.net is hosted has experienced a hardware failure of some sort. I’m looking into it now.

Today is CL1P.net’s birthday. Two years ago today the whole world find out about the cool little site that let you copy and paste between computers. It was on this day that lifehacker ran a very nice story on CL1P. Then it went to the top position of del.icio.us. Chris Pirillo wrote about it, so the Guardian Unlimited, and many other bloggers from around the world.

The best thing is that cl1p.net has not just been a flash in the pan it has survived and even thrived. Every day thousands of people discover CL1P either by stumbleupon or though a friend.

CL1P has added new features. The first one was view restricted pages, Rich Text cl1ps, Auto save/Auto Update/ Message Boards / IPhone support and more.

More is still coming to CL1P and I am very close to releasing a much improved version with bigger files and pictures.

Long story short. I needed to quickly strip all HTML from a page I was working on. I searched for an HTML Stripper but only found code examples, not a functional web application.

So to help those in need of a simple HTML tag stripper, check out my HTML tag Stripper.

If folks to link to the HTML Stripper page that would be great. It will help other folks find it when they search.
