ABSTRACT:
A method and system for sharing data in a computer network having multiple processors enrolled therein. A local clipboard memory is initially associated with each processor enrolled in the computer network. A data object from an application within a processor enrolled in a computer network is thereafter transferred to the clipboard memory associated with that processor, in response to user input. The data object is thereafter automatically transferred to some or all clipboard memories of the other processors enrolled in the computer network. As a result of the automatic transference of the data object to the other clipboard memories of the processors enrolled in a network, applications running on those processors enrolled in the computer network can be directed, via user input, to retrieve the data object from the local clipboard memory of that processor. The clipboard memories contained within processors enrolled in the computer network can be grouped into one or more logical shared clipboard memories, thus allowing for the existence of one or more shared clipboards within the processors enrolled in the computer network.
