Reviewed by: CNET Staff
Taking a cue from real-world Post-it notes, Stick provides an equivalent product for your computer desktop. A few differences make the program a valuable asset for any PC. The most noticeable is that notes, when closed, turn into tabs you can then append to the sides of your screen. This makes keeping your desktop tidy a snap. In addition to basic text notes, you also can create Explorer notes, which are actual Windows Explorer windows. You can navigate the file system from within these or even use them for Web browsing.
Each note features a variety of customization options such as window color, transparency, autohiding, and font choices. Though it does lack a few features of the more advanced sticky-note apps, we recommend Stick for its ease of use and excellent implementation of tabs.
Publisher's description
From iWonder Designs :Organize your desktop using screen tabs to access the Web, browse your hard drive or network, take notes and monitor RSS feeds. With Stick you can do all these things with easy-to-use but out-of-the-way tabs that dock to the sides of your screen. You can also browse a simple calendar and the QuickLaunch feature automatically searches your drive for applications that can then be found quickly just by typing a few letters of the app's name.

Version: Stick 2.8.0.72
"Overall it's a pretty good service."
Pros: I like the tab system for quick spotting of the Sticky note you want.
Cons: No real dislikes ... combining type and background colours on the tabs doesn't work properly.
Summary: Not quite as versatile or flexible as 3M Post-It Notes ... but I'm sure it soon will be.

Version: Stick 2.8.0.72
"Very useful, stays handy but not in the way."
Pros: Easy to move the tabs around, put them in an unobtrusive place. Handy to click and open and close. Don't have to dig around my desk for a calendar or a calculator, or go through the computer menu, they are handy and available.
Cons: Haven't really had any problems. Program hung up one time in a month, but don't know that this program was the culprit.
Summary: I have tried several programs like this, and this is the one I've kept.

Version: Stick 2.8.0.72
Pros: The GUI look good
Cons: The news reader seen unable to delete opened message. The calculator not particularly useful (compare with Window 7). In addition, should able to dock to left and right margin in addition to the top.

Version: Stick 2.8.0.72
"Not sure if it's what I thought."
Pros: So far it is not working for me.
Cons: I keep getting a message of an update but it won't update. I thought it was a program I could stick a note on something else I was working on, maybe a document in Word where I needed a reminder, but I am not finding that it works that way.
Summary: Just not what I thought it was going to be. I will still work with it to see what real functionality it may have.
