Sticky Notes is a very small and easy to use application that allows users to create short handwritten or voice notes. The notes are arranged in a stack on the desktop, similar to paper sticky notes.

It was first included in Windows XP Tablet PC Edition and it also made it to the Windows Vista Tablet PC list of components. To find it go to Start Menu -> All Programs -> Accessories -> Tablet PC.

The interface is very simple and easy to learn. To create a note, just start writing using your mouse or stylus.

If you want to record a voice note just press the record button and start talking. When finished press the stop button. To play the note you just recorded or any other voice note just click on the play button.

All the notes are automatically saved so you don't need to worry about it. If you want to create a new note, just press the New Note button.

You can configure Sticky Notes to run automatically at every system startup to have quick access to all your notes.

Just go to: Tools -> Options and check the Open at Startup option.
