Scott Hanselman is great at evaluating all the little tools developers should be using.  Yesterday, he brought me to PureText.

While not the bane of my existence, the "Paste Special" feature is something I use *constantly*.  Unlike hotkey maven Scott, I was doing it with mouse clicks, which is even more painful.  Windows-V to "paste special" with one click is *exactly* the most important feature I've wanted added to all Microsoft software.  Thank you Steve Miller!!!
