Today, I'm going to deviate from my typical technical discussions about code or SDKs. Why? I just found a new feature in Windows 7 that I'm really liking. Has your monitor ever started to look like a giant pastel flower because of all the sticky notes adorning the edges? Then you will love Windows 7 Sticky Notes.
To check this feature out, click the Start Menu and click "Sticky Notes"
This will create a new sticky note on your screen. Simply click the note with your mouse and begin typing the text for your note. Your note might look like this.
By clicking the '+' icon you can create a new note. Clicking the 'x' in the right corner deletes your note. You can click and drag the lower right corner to resize your note. Click an drag the top of the note to put it anywhere you want on your desktop.
If you prefer green sticky notes to yellow, just right click your note and select green or whatever your favorite color might be.
My favorite thing about the new Windows 7 Sticky Notes is that the feature is simple, useful, and easy to use.
