Paste to publish

Press Cmd/Ctrl+V on the home page and your clipboard becomes a real blog post, with its own URL, in under a second. A photo, a screenshot, an article URL, a YouTube link, a paragraph of text: paste it, get a page. You can also drag-and-drop a file from your desktop. No uploader, no setup, no account between paste and a live URL.

No sign-up between paste and a live URL

How it works

  1. Press Cmd/Ctrl+V on this page (or click below to open the editor).
  2. Your text becomes a new note with its own URL.
  3. Toggle it public, copy the link, send it.

What you can share

  • Long messages: too long for chat, too informal for email.
  • Drafts: share with a friend before publishing.
  • Notes from a meeting: paste, send the URL.
  • Articles or essays: with images, links, and previews.

Better than a paste-and-forget tool

Most text-sharing sites give you a one-shot URL and lose your work the moment you close the tab. Textpad keeps everything you write inside your own archive, so the same link stays alive - and you can come back and edit, add to it, or unpublish at any time.
