Technology is advancing rapidly and the boom that we have seen in the electronics market in the last 10 years is something that is witnessing for the first time. We have laptops, tablets, and smartphones all around us today. Almost everyone in this world knows and owns these electronic gadgets now. We have moved from one phase to another in terms of technology just as we evolved our money from barter to metal, from metal to paper, from paper to plastic and now from plastic to electronic money. Like many other things, our sticky notes have also changed the way they used to look a few years ago.
Instead of pasting notes here and there on your computer screens, walls, doors, etc. you can now use electronic notes. There are several programs available these days, which allow you to use sticky notes and stick them on your computer desktop. You can move these notes to any corner you want and they will always stay in front of you as long as you don’t delete them. This time you won’t have to search for a pen or pencil to write your reminders.
These sticky notes are environmentally friendly as you don’t need paper or pencil to make them. You don’t even have to make your office look cluttered by having multiple notes pasted here and there. The great thing about electronic notes is that they are quite attractive and contain some great features for office workers. Not to mention, you don’t always have to pay the price to see how they work. There are free programs that offer a much better experience than traditional paper notes. You can create them in a variety of font colors and settings.
The transparency of the electronic notes can also be changed, so that they do not act as intrusions and distractions on the desktop. You can make them in any size you think is appropriate. In addition, almost all sticky note programs usually have an “always on top” setting that helps you ensure that your notes are not hidden behind windows when you use your browser or Windows Explorer. Most of these programs use almost no resources on your computer and everything you do in your notes is done in seconds and without delay.
When choosing free software, make sure it comes with a portable version. The portable version is the best for travelers. They can get the software on their USB flash drives and use it whenever they want and on any computer they want. Those who have been in the habit of using sticky notes a lot will love electronic sticky notes for their search function.
