Editorial Review of Stickies for Windows

For a sticky note app that really pops, try Stickies for Windows. This simple, free, open source program lets you customize your notes to your heart's content, and stick them anywhere on your desktop.

Note: Please see the author's site and read the license before installing this software. This program is donationware. It is free to try, but the author accepts and encourages donations towards further development.

Duration of ownership: 1 Days

Strengths: Ability to change the size of font face, color and size is nice.

Weaknesses: To close the note, it takes 2 clicks: right click for options, then click delete. One click X would be nice. You can set the transparency, but when you hover over the sticky, it won't come into full view. No date and time as to when you wrote the note. Freebie Notes (available on PCWorld site) a has much better interface. I'm suprised that Freebie Notes wasn't part of PC World magazine's article in August. I didn't notice multiple processes in task manager for each sticky as another review stated, but it was more than the Freebie Notes was using.

Overall Evaluation: Low-grade sticky but functional. A piece of paper would be easier to read when desired.

Duration of ownership: 2 Months

Strengths: Works as described - with caveats.

Weaknesses: Every sticky becomes its own separate process - ie:3 stickies=3 additional processes running. Launch task manager to see for yourself. Stickies have a way of disappearing from your desktop with no way to recover the information. Do not trust Stickies with any critical information.

Overall Evaluation: Needs work to correct critical flaws.

Duration of ownership: 1 Months

Strengths: Very nice application. Allows you to position stickies of any size anywhere on your screen, adjust their color, font, etc., and even their opacity - giving you the ability to have transparent stickies so that you can see what is beneath them while still seeing the sticky note itself!

Weaknesses: Being able to name (in the upper border) and putting date/time stamps would make this a far more useful utility than it already is.

Overall Evaluation: Excellent for the money! Installation is a breeze - even a child could do it!

Duration of ownership: 0 Months

Strengths: NA

Weaknesses: Couldn't install. PC needed to first install .NETFramework vrsion 2.0.50727 which of course I was not able to obtain at the link I was connected to!!

Overall Evaluation: inadequate software design - too complicated to install!
