Digital Stickey Notes
Sometimes you just need to jot something down. Unfortunately, cluttering your desk with little notes and pieces of paper is hardly a user friendly organization. Also, it’s pretty wasteful both monetarily and environmentally. Fortunately, there is a free solution that allows most of the benefits of little sticky pieces of paper everywhere.
Desktop Stickeys by Zhorn Software is by far the coolest application I’ve found for managing this task. They system is light weight and allows plenty of customization options for the look and feel of sticky notes. You can change the color the title bar and minimize sticky notes easily. Also you are able to assign quick keys to sticky notes to show and hide and create new notes. This prevents you from stumbling around your desktop when you need to write down a phone number. Another really cool feature is the ability to make sticky notes disappear and pop up at different times. You can set mini-reminders to do different things right from your sticky note.
While this application won’t work for non-computer related tasks, I constantly find myself in front of a computer screen, so having notes on my desktop is the most obvious place for me to keep them. This application works great and has been making my life easier for several years now!
