Tomboy notes

A while back a couple co-workers suggested tomboy for note taking. I was actually looking for a little pop-up reminder application (eg: "bing bing...it's two o'clock, stop typing and go to that meeting") and there are tomboy plugins for things like that. But I didn't want to run a notes management widget and just wanted a reminder widget.

So around rolls the end of the year...it's one of the times when I try to do a little organising and tidying up of loose ends and thoughts. And towards that end, with a lot of random notes all over the place needing some better organisation, I remembered the tomboy recommendation.

Tomboy is a perfect match for me. It's a very simple application that's trivial to learn. It's like a mix between stick-notes and wiki for your desktop. I love it! And I bet others would too if they knew it existed and gave it a spin.
