As a past user of real 3M PostIt Notes and the PostIt Notes software I didn't think there would be a better substitute any time soon. Then I found PC Magazine's NoteWhen 2 software. The magazine offers Other utilities for adding functionality, managing and monitoring your PC, etc., all available for a minimal price or within the annual subscription fee of $19.97 on the annual utility signup page.
The program is a little like using real PostIt Notes but is software based and sits on your PC's desktop. Whenever you want to create a new note just click on the icon on the bottom taskbar area and then type in the new note. The new note pops up on your screen set to the same size and color as the previous note. You can then change various settings for the new note or go with how it was created. You can change the note color, size (it stretches), font and position on the screen. The program remembers settings as you make them and new notes will be similar until you change the settings again.
PC Magazine's annual utility membership is a steal and you get unlimited access for all utilities released during that year. Usually any one of them is worth the cost of the annual membership.
Give it a try! You will find the utilities provide some of the missing features you might wish for and will find they almost always provide a very useful add-on to your library of PC tools.
