My wife uses it to remind me of things that need to be done. Caution: Installing the "global hooks" option activates the hot key functionality and changes the way some key combinations work.

From day one until today (a couple months) I have continued to use stickies. I used to write on regular stickie notes and either lose them or forget about some of them because some of them were stuck on top of one another, etc. Stickies worked out perfect because they aren't messy. I found Stickies to be easy to use and a super small file size. Great program!

This is a cool app, it seem to leave a fairly small footprint on your pc resources. The options are great, the networking and email functions are great to send stickies back and forth to people or PCs in your friends list, instant connectivity over a LAN. The only complaint I have is that after closing the app and re-opening, it revert my sticky titles back to their original before i edited them, which is the first line of the note. This is much too long. I titled my notes thing like "lunch" or "meeting" and after closing and re-opening, the notes now have the titles, "lunch at subway with Marianne and mari" and "Board meeting at 10am in the committee room, bring notes on project x". If not for this flaw, the program would be perfect for those without outlook, and it's own notes functionality with reminders and everything else this one has (depending on if you have an exchange server, or a third party pst share)

Stickies is a great program! I have been using it for a long time and have recommended it to a ton of people. It gets the job done, and is very simple to use. Great reminders and helps with time organization. Stickies all the way! :)

This is an excellent little program. Very 'User' Friendly. How refreshing it is to find that there are still some people in the world ready to produce something for no cost/fee and without expecting anything in return. I applaud the developer for this terrific little program he has developed and for offering it as a 'Freebie'. The bonus being, that this program really does NOT contain any 'Adware' or 'Spyware'. In my experience it integrates extremely well with Windows '98 - NO glitches, NO bugs, NO Nothin'! Just a smoothe running, reliable, extremely good all round professional looking/User Friendly program that does what it claims. I can do no better than to commend this program to anyone who is considering installing any kind of Sticky Note/Reminder Program. Forget the rest, 'Stickies' is the best. Thank you Tom!

I like Stickies, particularly the jiggling option - the post-note jiggles when the alarm gets activated. Very nice, but ATnotes is better in my opinion (features richer).

Very nice indeed. Paid and tried 3M's Post-It notes, but too bloated and crasches all the time. Love the Networksupport with automatic mailing if not found online. Only thing I haven't found out yet is to get those nice shadows shown here on the screenshot. Nothing about it on the homepage or in the manual.

Great program with many uses. Sticky notes on your machine, reminders that pop up at set times, and also great for poking notes or url's across the network to my partners machine too! This does three useful things in one little program. Excellent.

This has to be one of the best & most useful programs out there. It is lite & full featured and most important the author is committed to it's continued improvement. Support is also very, good. Get it....

Nice! This is a sticky note manager and a time-triggered reminder, too. Very good, VERY easy to use, can be controlled with a few comfortable one-hand hotkeys (not some ShiftAltCtrlScrollockZ:), styles are easy to save/recall, sizing is semi-automatic (just as it should be, x=manual, y=auto)... Stickies can sleep for a while, or UNTIL a specific time, very useful - a little inconvenience when setting the time from keyboard only, but it's okay. And, you don't need to worry about deleted stickies.

Well, it is the best I ve found anyway. Much easier to grasp that AT Notes, for example.

Does the job excellantly. Just been improved so that the user can now easily change colours and fonts etc. I have tried other "sticky note" type programmes but I find this one the best.
