Tomboy Notes


What can I say, I love free software!!!
For me a while back "Free Software" used to mean the programs I got a crack for so I didn't have to pay for them. Now it means the programs that I can use, swap, redistribute and modify, free as in freedom to do with it as I choose.

One of the most useful programs that I use is called Tomboy notes, I have been using it for a while and it usually comes installed with Ubuntu.



You know those little tid bits of info that you need to keep, and you can't find your pen so you need to type it somewhere? Or it doesn't fit into any category so you cant file it any were on your computer? Well thats Tomboy notes is for. Whats more is that it has a built in search, so if you can't remember exactly where you put your info its still easy to find. Another feature that I like is that you can link notes together by inserting the title of one note into another.

What is even more awesome is that I noticed that Tomboy is not only available on Linux but they do Mac and Windows versions as well, so go ahead and download it and check it out and see if you like it if you do, let me know what you think.
