StickyNote Review

I'm in a quandary. I have to confess that I rather like StickyNote but I'm not quite sure that I should, nor am sure that my reasons for doing so are anything more than frivolous. I like it because it's pretty and it's gimmicky, but it's definitely one of those facilities I could do without and one I will probably abandon when its pastel colored novelty factor has worn off. After all, one of the benefits of having a computer and utilizing the seemingly endless ways that its 'part of the package' software provides in terms of organizing things is... the elimination of real world clutter! Remember in the olden days we were told that using a PC to manage our lives would cut down on paper usage and provide us all with far superior means to file and find documents. StickyNote is software that mimics real life! As its rather silly name suggests, it sticks sticky notes to your desktop. Wahoo! Why do I find that fascinating? I have been sticking real sticky notes to real things for years, and finding the process nothing like as satisfying as sticking digitally generated notes all over the place. Okay, it does offer a fairly neat way to organize things, and there are added bonuses like being able to change the paper texture on notes or choose different colors depending on what subject matter or assignment the note relates to. Oh, and you can even alarm your notes! Yes, that's right, alarmed sticky notes that will appear at designated times. It's all too much for me. It really is.
