Pastebot just got a lot more useful for me, and I didn’t even have to wait for an App Store update. There’s a new Pastebot Sync beta in town and it has improved the copy and pasting behaviour of Pastebot to be a lot more compatible with Finder on the Mac (just make sure to reload the Pastebot Sync prefpane when you install this beta). What all of that really means is this that I can now copy several pictures right from the camera roll and paste them right into the folder of my choice. When several pictures are copied right into Pastebot from the camera roll you’ll only see a thumbnail of the first one, but tapping on the arrow will let you view the rest of the batch.
Copying six pictures into Pastebot took about three seconds, and pasting those pictures to the desktop took about five seconds. I’m really impressed with that speed, and it’s now much easier for me to get review screenshots or pictures straight from my iPhone and throw them onto my Mac. Even better, I can probably get away with abandoning that stupid tethered iPhoto import, which has never reliably detected my 3GS.
Pastebot is now the leading $2 purchase of the last five years of my life, beating out a huge discount Slurpie, my cat, and that double-pack of Mentos where the individual candies had melted together to form one super long Mentos. A big kudos to Tapbots for working so hard to get a new feature up within days of the app’s release.
