Description

📝 What is a sticky note

A sticky note (sometimes called a “Post‑it note” or “memo note”) is a small sheet of paper with a lightly adhesive strip on the back. That adhesive lets the note stick to surfaces like walls, desks, notebooks, computers, or documents — and also lets you peel it off and re‑stick it somewhere else without leaving residue.

Most sticky notes are square or rectangular; one of the most common sizes is about 3 inches by 3 inches (≈ 7.6 cm × 7.6 cm), though they also come in other sizes such as 3″ × 5″, 2″ × 2″, 4″ × 6″, etc.

They usually come in bright or pastel colors (yellow, pink, green, blue, etc.), to help them stand out so reminders or messages don’t get overlooked.

✅ What sticky notes are useful for

Sticky notes are very versatile and often used for:

• Quick reminders — e.g. “buy groceries”, “call someone”, “meeting at 3 PM”.

• To‑do lists — writing down tasks and sticking them somewhere visible (desk, wall, fridge, etc.).

• Organizing thoughts — for brainstorming, planning, project‑management, labeling, marking pages in books or notebooks.

• Temporary messages or notes — leaving notes on a colleague’s desk, on a door, or inside a book.

• Visual planning — color‑coding tasks, priorities or ideas so they stand out.

Because they’re portable, removable, and re‑stickable, sticky notes are also handy for rearranging ideas or tasks (e.g. moving tasks on a board as you complete them).

🧑‍💻 Typical characteristics

• Light adhesive backing — allows easy sticking and re‑sticking without damaging surfaces or leaving residue.

• Compact size / various sizes — from small notes for quick reminders, to larger ones for lists or longer messages.

• Bright / noticeable colors — to draw attention and make notes easy to spot.

• Writable surface — works with pen, pencil or marker to jot down notes, tasks, ideas, messages.
