Say I wanted to have bit of text (actually 4 different addresses) that I'd like to be able to easily (and frequently) paste. Is there a way I can make a bookmarklet that will put those addresses into the clipboard? I'd like to be able to click the appropriate one, then right click + Paste.

Yes it's possible, have a look at zeroclipboard (note: requires flash). Also see this previous question.

  • Close, but not what I'm looking for. I'm putting in the next months public events into Google Calendar, and trying to speed up putting in the address each time. – aslum Jul 26 '11 at 17:04

Try building a Firefox extension instead of a bookmarklet. Mozilla XUL (extension language) lets you do copy-paste. Another option is a Java Applet.
