get it done with sticky screen

If you're like most people these days, you spend the majority of your working day behind a computer screen. And more than likely, it's covered in little notes to keep yourself amused / interested / focused / etc

Mac users have long been blessed with a great little app called 'Stickies' which is essentially a digital version of these for your desktop, but one of the world's leading young bloggers Jack Cheng has put together a cool little version for anyone to use anytime, for free. 

It's called StickyScreen.org and it's the simplest thing in the world.
Just enter your reminder message on the sticky note, save it as your home page and then everytime you open a new window, you've got a bright yellow reminder pointing you in the right direction.

But as Jack says in his full explanation of the side project, remember to change it at least once a week... Just like real sticky notes, if you look at them too long, the message gets stale and we stop paying attention.

What sticky notes do you use to keep yourself motivated? Here are some I use every day...

Do you have an even better method?
