What would you describe as the life-span of a typical sticky note that you'd attach to your monitor? Not finite, that's for sure. Your monitor can get rather warm, we have a bad habit of leaving our machine turned on overnight, which can affect the stickiness of our notes. If the office gets a clean each morning and your note has fallen on the office floor, you might find that it's disappeared after a long weekend. The old-fashioned sticky paper notes are perhaps not the way forward.

NoteZilla 7 is a tool that will enable you to post sticky notes to your computer desktop, in an electronic format. You can use different colours for different notes, mark-up your text in alternative fonts, embolden titles and close unimportant notes so they don't take up too much real estate on your screen.
