Copy and Paste Hero
Whoever invented copy and paste is my new hero! I’m sorry Tresblue, Jayx, Mike, Dave, Max and Qureyoon, but the copy and paste guy just made it to my no. 1 hero spot of all times.
How many times a day do you copy and paste? Can you imagine a life without copy and paste?! For me its the number 1 tool. If I did not have it, I would probably go completely mad retyping lines and lines of the same code over and over again.
So this post goes out to the guy that thought up such an essential tool in all of our geeky lives which we take so much for granted. We love you man!
PS. Now, I’ve been procrasinating for long enough… I MUST do help files for our Mesh Application and hate doing it and have been doing anything not to do it for 2 days!

As I am still procrastinating on my manual tasks (ha,ha no pun intended).
so I am still reading bloggies.
I would just like to say that copy and past is not my favourite tool.
If I told you what my favourite tool is I think I would get an X rating.
LOL, yeah you are right! It would get a X rating…
>> the guy that thought up such an essential tool
is it Bill Gates
hehehe.. anyway, i dont mind bein an old hero
hehehe…
but hell yeah, my posts up till now is all about copy and pasting
and i guess it’ll stay the same 4eva
help files ?! always hate it to do that part
how come they didn’t just figure it out how to use it
(mind of a geeks) 
Geez mate, great minds do think alike! I was saying the exact same thing. Why can’t users just be clever?
So wild.. I was just thinking about that yesterday %-) the simple fundamentals that have built this wonderland. Big respect for those oldskool geniuses
Hmmm I cannot agree more. What is really shocking is that exactly 1 year ago from the date you posted this http://www.rafiq.za.net/blog/2005/12/07/blogging-101-how-to-copy-and-paste/
How weird is that?
A year ago? The Web AddiCT(s); blog is a year old? Happy birthday to me
You know the saying… And a happy birthday!!
[...] Mike Stopforth - my Social Media HERO! (second to the Copy-and-Paste guy) [...]
Yeah, Copy and Paste and don’t forget Notepad. These are the best.
