How often do you copy/paste data? Perhaps, hundreds of times a day, just like me.
If you have never lost information stored in the clipboard, you are very lucky. Most likely, though, it happened more than once that you were trying to paste a piece of text, but something different was pasted instead - that's because the standard Windows clipboard just overwrites clipboard contents each time you copy something.
I hated the problem, so I've made this cute program, Clipdiary. It is a clipboard history manager that works almost like a time machine, because it lets you see what was in the clipboard a long time ago.
As soon as you install it, you can forget about the copy/paste problem! Moreover, there's a nice clipboard diary at your disposal, so you can view clipboard history and retrieve any data that was in the clipboard some time ago.
Please let me know if you want some feature to be added to Clipdiary.

If your life isn't based around endlessly copying & pasting links, image file names and chunks of text emailed out by company press departments into web windows, you might not appreciate it so much. But for me, Clip Diary's something I fire up about 30 times a day - and each time I metaphorically wipe my brow in relief.
