Get rid of all those Sticky Notes hanging off your monitor and make them digital.
To open Sticky Notes go to Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> Sticky Notes
This will open a single yellow note and you can type in your to-do list or reminders right into it. When your mouse hovers over the note, two buttons will appear at the top.
When you want to add a new Sticky Note, just click the New Note button (1) and when you’re done with a not click the Delete Note button (2).
If you want your note to be a different color, just right-click somewhere in the note and select the color from the drop down menu.
Formatting Text
