DeskNotes is Windows desktop application for keeping your notes on Windows desktop, like sticky notes. It helps you to keep your ideas in the place you visit and see the most of the time while sitting in front of your computer.
The things which should not be seen by everybody going around your Windows desktop can be hidden. DeskNote can be made top most of your windows so you see it even while working in some other application window. Since version 2.2 DeskNote can be switchable with other windows on Windows system, this means it is visible in Windows taskbar and in Alt+Tab windows switching window. If DeskNote is time dependent it can have a reminder (alarm) defined.

DeskNotes can be synchronized with MS Outlook Notes, this allow easy transfer of DeskNote into Outlook and from Outlook to e.g. mobile phone. Emailing of DeskNote is possible with single command, it uses default email client. All or single DeskNote can be printed.
When some of the things you posted on your desktop is old, but you want to keep it, you can move these old DeskNotes into the Archive and save into different categories. If Archive gets too big it is possible to search inside. At the end you can print everything from Archive.
