Could Be So Much Better. Seriously needs updating!

Parsnips clips text directly from browsers. That I love. I paid $27 to register it in 2005. Since 2005, It has become old and tired. It seems not to handle any multimedia. Further, there is no ability to tag, and I cannot set up Folders.
Many other clipping apps - such as Caboodle, iClip, Savvy Clipboard, Yojimbo - handle multimedia, tag, allow folder building, and costs much less.
I am also not sure that Parsnips works with Camino, OmniWeb, Opera, or browsers other Safari or Firefox.
It seems the developer may not be actively managing this software. I sent an e-mail to the developer on 03/07/07 but there were delivery problems.
With an update, Parsnips could definitely get better ratings and a recommendation: it is stable and easy to use. But presently, Parsnips is sorely outdated.
This vendor put this software out, charged $27.00 for it, stopped developing it, now it's free!
You know, if someone puts software out, gets ill and can't go further, I understand. If that happened here, then I wish the vendor respite from the troubles of sickness.
SO MANY duds are throwing software at us - software that we could actually use and for which we are willing to pay - then decide to walk away and leave us, the people who believed in them and supported them. Leaving us, however. However the application will work unsupported as interconnecting technologies move on. They leave the applications to wither away and fall behind and become however pointless.
It's happening so much that you can feel like you're missing bliss cause these raiders are certainly... (Never mind, nothing from nothing leaves nothing!).
I DON'T LIKE PAYING FOR SHAREWARE ONE MONTH AND HAVING IT UNSUPPORTED SIX MONTHS LATER! If you don't plan on keeping this gosh-darn software going, then make it free from the start. Perhaps all of you who don't intend to see your projects through should state that upfront - when you put the shat on the market! It's your for-the-moment hobby!
You folks out there in college and post-grad: just because you are gifted enough to throw it together, get enough bucks so you can go write your doctoral thesis on why Grigori Perelman didn't take the money for solving the Poincare Conjecture after so many failed for over 100 years, step back! There are some walking the same path as you who get to the end zone and touchdown, just the same, within resorting to completely self-serving tactics. Some people working on a thesis still support the software and the supporters they secured. They have honor (and probably better theses!).
You patriarch raiders, you...well, you should know better, anyway!
EXASPERATED BY THE BUNCH OF YOU!
