Well, I came here looking for note programs with alarms, but noticed the reference to “Notefrog.” That program is hardly a “sticky note” tool. It can be used that way, but I have been using it since its early releases. It is a powerful personal note database hiding behind an extremely simple interface- and maybe the best free application I have seen in a long, long time. It claimed to be revolutionary, and the damned thing turned out to really be just that.

I’ve been using Microsoft OneNote for the last couple of years and don’t know how I ever got along without it. My work notebook has sections for technical notes, program code, password-protected client info and so on, and each section has pages and sub-pages. My personal notebook has sections for household, volunteer activities, music, and the sections also have pages and sub-pages.

On my HP tablet, I can take notes with the pen as well as with the keyboard, and on my workstation I use only the keyboard. Handwriting easily gets converted to text if I want. The databases sync automatically when the tablet is on the office network.

NoteFrog’s free version offers everything NoteScraps does and a whole lot more, and the Pro version is even better, and reasonably priced.

For quick-note taking I prefer to use Stickies from http://zhornsoftware.co.uk/

Stickies is a free app that let you have Post-It notes that resides in the Desktop.
