How can I easily share clippings across platforms and networks? I have to use a Windows PC at work, but I often bring my MacBook Air so I can get work done that is hard or inefficient to perform on Windows.  I am not allowed to connect my Mac to the corporate network, so when I do something on the Mac and want to copy from the Mac and paste into an app on the Windows laptop, there's no easy way.  No network clipboard manager I've ever seen I had seen at the time I wrote this question works when your two machines are not on the same network.  (Obviously both machines are connected to the internet, however.)   

Using Dropbox or (worse yet) e-mail or (worst of all) a flash drive is too painful.  I want a simple and almost effortless way of transferring data or text between machines&mdash;something so easy and transparent that I don't have to think about the process, but can instead focus on whatever work I'm doing and not lose that focus.  

How can I achieve this?

Some sort of Bluetooth data transfer might be allowed, as long as there's no TCP/IP connection to the Mac over Bluetooth, or something like that.  But I'm guessing the solution will more likely involve both machines communicating in some fashion over the internet.
