Remind yourself of up-and-coming tasks with Stickies

Grab140 It's easy to use paper to write down our forthcoming tasks and contact details, but these can easily get lost on our work computer. The cleaners come in after hours, attempt to clean your computer and accidentally knock a few sticky notes on the floor. They might be lost forever. A better option would be to use your system to store your notes and post these details on your desktop screen, then shut off your PC at the end of every working day.

Stickies 6 is a simple tool that enables you to add sticky notes to your desktop screen. You can customise the colour, the font and keep your notes customised so that you have one sticky for your meetings and another for what you need to do at home. Better still, they don't need to just reside on your work computer. If you remember a task, you can transfer the note to another user or another computer. You can also set alarms to remind you of a forthcoming important date.
