Almost everybody have at least once used those small colored Sticky Notes to write down something important or just leave a message for another person.
Absolutely free NoteIT is software that allows you using such sticky notes on your desktop. This program is very small and doesn't need a lot of system resources. After installing and launching it, a special icon will appear in your tray.
For creating a new note on your desktop simply 'right-click' or 'double-click' on this icon and select 'New Note' in pop-up menu. When a new note appears on your desktop you can type any text you like on it. Right-clicking on any note you have created gives you extensive menu with lots of text formatting preferences, like size, style, color, align and many more. Note’s appearance also can be customized. For example, you can adjust its color and transparency. Also you can hide all notes by right-clicking on the tray icon and selecting respective items in pop-up menu.
Despite NoteIT isn't software with huge functionality, it is a great tool for making extra notes.
