Hi there, Chris!

Been watching some of your videos the past couple of weeks; just checked out your Top Five Reasons to Use Outlook. You asked towards the end what other people use for organisation of info, notes, reminders, etc.

I have, for a long time, been using a free application called Hott Notes.

It’s basically an app that lets you create various post-it style notes on your desktop, in various colours, fonts, transparencies, etc. It also has various options for alarms, reminders, and other features.

I use it very often on my second screen for odd bits of info to remind me of something, or as a useful patch on the screen to cut and paste odd bits of text that I may want to use later on that day.

There are a fair few applications like this that are free on the ‘net, but this one is by far the best I have found.
