Is not the neater solution to build a code snippet aware IM / Email client? Or a plugin to one of the existing major IM/Email clients.

Fits in with current user behavior.

Smaller change in behavior == smaller barrier to adoption.

i see a problem when dealing with dependencies. ;-0
As far as my experience goes, you copy paste code snippets with the assumption that your team mates environment is identical to yours.
i tried this:
#include

int main(int argc, char* argv)
{
printf(“hello”);
}

another very mischievous thought strikes my mind.
how about the popular php code to send a mail? ;-B

Codepad is great for executing the shared code. But if you just want to share then there is also pastebin[dot]com and pastebin[dot]me One nice feature of pastebin[dot]com is the private(not password protected though) pastebins. Just type any sub-domain like rohits-secret-project[dot]pastebin[dot]com
