CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This reminder program is about as simple and bare-bones as they come. Basically, Memento allows you to append any number of sticky notes to your desktop. The program provides a few pastel-colored templates at random, but you can't select the color yourself or change the font. The tiny notes also can't be resized to a larger view. Right-clicking the application's system-tray icon will let you view all notes at once, and you can generate a new one with a hot key. However, don't expect any extra features such as pop-up reminders or audio alarms. Folks seeking an extremely basic note-taking app for no cost might consider Memento, but it's certainly not for power users.Publisher's description
From Guys with Towels :Memento (formerly PostIt) lets you keep notes on your desktop to remind you of information, dates, and times. It is focussed on ease of use and simplicity. Notes are automatically saved every minute (if they have changed), can be collapsed into the note title bar, and you can change the color of the notes.

Version: Memento 1.09
Pros: This program is great, plus it is easy to use. I have tried various other sticky notes programs and found that they were annoying or too hard to use.
Cons: None!

Version: Memento 1.09
"Almost perfect as well as nice looking"
Pros: Excellent desktop note program -- and I've compared many other free ones! -- with it's system tray icon (means no taskbar button!), hiding notes, multiple colors, and transparency ability. Beautiful looking (especially when transparent) and simple.
Cons: The only possible downside would be that it doesn't allow for text styles/colors. Sorry, but has to lose one star because of that. But even so, it's the best of the free ones, and I'm using it! :)

Version: Memento 1.09
"the best notepad for your computer that i'v found so far..."
Pros: i love this software because it is very efficient. it is easy and simple to use. i also love how it stays on top of my other applications so i can REALLY take notes while looking at other things. the transparency option is cool too. very efficient. try it!
Cons: i wish the notepad looked a little cooler. i like the simplicity, but making things look cool can still be simple. also, i wish it had options to bold, italicize, color, etc. the font.
