Does any one use Sticky Notes on their Desktop?

I find it very handy for important appointments as it is easy to forget sometimes.:thumbsup:.

I used to. Since I got my first smart phone I sort of stopped using my desktop for calendar, notes and contacts.

I always forget that they are there and although it seems like a good idea, I hate having anything on my desktop. :D

Thanks Bob. Just thought it may be handy for old seniors who have memory issues like Golden Oaks where Gary is.

Most of them don't have phones and only computers.It's there for anyone to read.

That would be an excellent idea, Dougie. You ought to suggest it.

Yes it would. Hadn't thought about that.

Gary has read the thread. Waiting for his thoughts.

Thanks Dougie! It's really surprising how many of them have cell phones. I guess there kids get them for them. I get asked quite often about cell phones. They aren't my expertise. I have a cheep one, but seldom use it. I just helped a senior get a new password for their Yahoo email yesterday by Yahoo texting or what ever you call it. It was pretty simple. Some times getting a forgotten password can be a real pain. Also cleaned his PC up.

It had Trojan Chrome and a bunch of PUP's on it. Fixed his sound. Added WOT to his browser and some other things. He thinks I'm the smartest guy in the world. Boy do I have him fooled! My wife has stickies all over the place. She keeps me lined out! Good tip Dougie. Thanks!

I bought my mom a cell phone years ago but she never used it.

 

If I had ever been able to get my Mom to use a regular computer instead of Web-TV, she would have loved the Sticky Notes.

I can see where they would come in handy for elderly people as a reminder for Doctor's appointments, telephone numbers etc.

 

Great suggestion, Dougie!

I use them all the time.So easy.

I forget appointments and phone numbers often.

Must be my age.:big_grin:

I have sticky notes in my task bar and just click on that.:)
