Review:

Although StickyNotes is a good idea for a way to remind you about important tasks, it is definitely not worth the cost.

You could easily find freeware that is more straight to the point, for example a software where you click on a note then type what you want.

I do not know anyone who wants to write a sticky note and have a sound go off. Real, paper sticky notes are just shorthand, quickly written notes for reminders. So, basically, the quicker, the better.

If you are wasting all your time right clicking and selecting font and disabling sounds, etc. Plus, the program is always running. To shut it off, you must right click on the icon in the system tray.

This means that the program takes up RAM (even if its not very much) that could be used for different, more useful (and less expensive) programs.

Conclusion:

I could find a freeware program that would do the same job, but probably more efficiently and user-friendly. Best of all, I would be $17.95 richer
