Make new sticky note mac2/27/2024 (4) There are keyboard commands on Mac and Windows to quickly pull up and minimize the Evernote app. This might be as fast or faster than (1), but of course, it requires a Mac. (3) On my current 11" screen I tend to use full-screen mode (Mac) and just swipe between programs. I used to do this when I worked on computers with more screen real-estate. (2) You could double click on a note, size it really small, and leave it in the corner of the screen. I find this to be the most effective way to keep on task and avoid breaking a workflow. It occurs immediately, with no need to pull up Evernote or do anything extra. (1) The coolest way to get something from point A (a do*****ent or the web) to point B (Evernote) is to use a keyboard command (depending on the client you are using) to take selected text and create a new note out of it. It would be cool to have a sticky note program, but I think Evernote has a lot of options already for doing some of the things you are wanting. It syncs well with Dropbox (making do*****ents available for editing on any platform) and with SimpleNote (another beautiful app), but doesn't yet sync with Evernote. In my opinion, it is one of the most elegantly designed apps available. I use the methods I mentioned above (1-4) for most things, but when I need plain text, I use Notational Velocity. It doesn't sync to Evernote, but as soon as I have a few moments (after the act of taking my note), I Cmd+A,Cmd+X,Cmd+V my noten in Notational Velocity into Evernote notes, so everything ends up in Evernote before too long without too much work. It's not a sticky note program, but I use it for my equivalent of stickies. I often use Notational Velocity to take very fast notes, for a number of reasons related to the concerns you mentioned: it loads instantly, it's only simple text, and it saves automatically. One suggestion that may or may not work for you:
