stickies 6.7a

stickies 6.7a is a reminder type on screen note program for your PC. I suppose one could even use it as a PIM depending upon their needs.

It keeps your stickies on screen, or hidden away until a time of your choosing. They then pop up to remind you of birthdays, appointments, etc.. Stickies has search capability, and I believe networking abilities as well.

Some people hate this type of program, others swear by them. The only thing I can advise is try it out and see what you think.

Of this type of program, stickies is the best I've seen.

As are most of the programs I recommend, stickies is free to use.

Clipmate and Ditto two good clipboard capture utilities

created 9/25/05
updated 9/8/06, 6/20/07, minor update 9/8/07, 5/17/09, and 6/16/09
completely redone 6/27/09

My clipboard capture utility of choice is Clipmate. It is shareware and not cheap, but it works very well for my needs. I believe there is a 30 day trial period.

If you can't afford Clipmate, I recommend giving Ditto a look see. It is open source freeware I believe, and works well.

Weather Watcher Live v 6.01

update 10/16/09...........:
At the time this data was posted, it was accurate. However now while still a great weather monitoring product, versions shortly after 6.01 became for profit. If you can find a version 6.01 or earlier it is still free, otherwise I believe a fee of $9.95 per year is imposed.
end of update..............

If you value up to date good weather data, then this free program may be for you.

I get hour by hour forecasts, daily, current conditions, maps, etc..

There are hundreds or thousands of weather stations within the US to choose from. There MAY be worldwide stations as well, I'm not sure.
