What's the Best PIM?

To put your life in order, you need more than addresses and appointments. You need a PIM -- a personal information manager.

Post-it Software Notes puts a notepad dispenser on your screen, which lets you create a note any time you need to. Just remembered something about tomorrow's marketing meeting, but don't have time to file it in the right folder? Click a Post-it, type, and move on. Just wasted 30 minutes trying to find that piece of paper with the prospective client's phone number? The software enables you to do a text search to find the right mini-memo.

Geek Factor: If you're using Windows 95, you can attach electronic Post-its to documents and spreadsheets that you send to other people. They don't even need to have the software to read them.

Weak Factor: It isn't as simple as jotting down a note and sticking it to your desk lamp. Moving these digital squares around takes a little practice.
