I've been toying with this; you could use something like iPaste or
CopyPaste, or TypeIt4Me--not services, but easily accessible
anyplace-so far iPaste is the winner for me.

in terms of tags, I've been experimenting with tagging files in the Get
Info Comments and using File Buddy to search; obviously with Spotlight
you could put the tags directly into the file, though having a metadata
space for them would be helpful so that the file itself can stay as
content only.
