Desktop Sticky Notes

[Mike]

I'm sure there are a ton of virtual sticky note apps out there, some folks like them others don't, but I use atnotes and have been for many years. It puts a very configurable sticky note on my desktop, with alarms and "always on top" so there's just no getting away from them. I use them for my BIG THREE and top priority TODO items - and I make them nice and big so they're visible by anyone.

I just downloaded this and this is so great! It sits on top of my desktop and it is completely customizable! Love it! Thanks for sharing Mike!

Atnotes is a nice useful tool

On Linux distributions similar software we can use is 'snotes' which has almost all the features of atnotes( I have tried it on Debian lenny and Ubuntu) .One other software which is bundled with debian distribution is Rhinotes.

Four steps to setup snotes :
Step1.
download link:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/s-notes ... z/download
extract the file using archive manager or using command tar -zxvf {filename}

Step2.
using apt-get install command install three supporting packages along with subpackages( if not installed)

run this command through root terminal user:~# apt-get install qt-3apps-dev,qt3-dev-tools,libstdc++5
qt-3apps-dev - (Qt3 Developer applications development files),
qt3-dev-tools - (Qt3 development tools)
libstdc++5 - (GNU standard C++ library)

Step 3.
copy snotes binary from the extracted folder and paste it in /bin folder

Step 4.

giving 'snotes' command on terminal we can start snotes, we can create desktop shortcut for snotes through application launcher.
