It probably won't get much love ( I hated the "landing page" while making it ), but http://paste.click/

It was really just to put something in on the domain root. Only a couple people actually use paste.click, and it was written just for my own use initially, but people asked wtf it was every time I linked to something on it so it got a "landing page". I didn't put all too much thought into it, but after I pushed it live I realized that it's everything I want in a landing page.

It describes what it is, has some examples, and that's about it. No marketing speak or buzzwords. Now, obviously its not a product or anything, and I don't intend to market it or care about who uses it, which gives me some leeway, plus there's not all too much to say about it, but I wish more landing pages had a similar feel.

Wow, can't say I like the landing page too much, but it does gets the features across, which many other landings pages fail. I like it that it's very simple.

With that said, the service is also killer, if you're interested, I wrote some shorthands (aliases/functions) that you (or any user of the service) might have for, check it out: https://coderwall.com/p/l-7kqg/dead-simple-pastbin-service-f...

Glad to hear you like it! My idea was to have something very composable and "unix-y", I'm happy to see people using it like that.

I have a a very similar function in my .zshrc ( http://paste.click/s/bGGcnq ) rolled into a single function, though xsel is probably less portable/supported than pbcopy now that I think about it. The last two examples I have bound to Super + S and Super + V, but unfortunately there's no portable and simple way to do that, so I left the config for it out. ( For awesome wm if anyone is curious http://paste.click/s/xydBVJ )

Whoa, that's super simple as opposed to a lot of the other pasting sites! I'm using this now!

Neat tool and neat landing page (though the colors are really haphazard). Very much like the YAML homepage:

Thanks! It uses highlight.js for the syntax highlighting, and I just kinda unleashed it on the home page which isn't any kind of valid syntax, hence the haphazardness, but it looks better than just plain black on white monospace imo.

The yaml homepage is pretty much my ideal website, (though I'd prefer a dark theme, but Im picky) never visited that directly before, I'm a fan. :)
