Whew! Disclaimer out of the way. Who doesn\u2019t like sticky notes? EB put down your warty hand. You love sticky notes just as much as anyone else. Yes, Delores? Yes we are aware that Windows 7 has its own built-in sticky notes program. Yes, it is nice. We agree. But what if you\u2019re in Lower Slobovia taking a course on making poison blow darts from the sap of Bolivian tree frogs, and you can\u2019t remember if you paid your Visa card bill this week? You wrote yourself a sticky note but it\u2019s on your Windows 7 laptop back at the hotel and you are 75 miles away in the rain forest, sitting in front a big, boiling pot of tree frog sap. What can you do?<\/p>\n

Well you have your smartphone with you, don\u2019t you? Who the heck would ever think of boiling tree frog sap without a smartphone handy? (EB put down your hand, please! You are disrupting my class!) Sans your Windows 7 laptop, you just fire up your smartphone (Lower Slobovia has a really good 4G network) and browse to your Listhings account (Yes EB? Of course it\u2019s free.) and you can see your sticky notes \u2013 all of them, including the one that one that says \u201cDon\u2019t forget to pay Visa, it\u2019s already 2-months past due!\u201d<\/p>\n

Now it\u2019s a month later, so you need to plan on buying a tent (with cash) and hiding out in an obscure part of the rain forest, next to the tree frogs, because when the hotel learns your Visa card is no good, they\u2019ll send out a party of really mean head shrinkers to find you. And if they do, that pot with all the bubbling tree frog sap, will be used to simmer your head, and you will be the star of big head shrinking ceremony \u2013 one you\u2019re sure to want to miss.<\/p>\n

See? Listhings might come in handy \u2013 it might virtually keep you from losing your head! What the heck am I talking about? I better head in a different direction.  This is an excellent time to bring in the web app\u2019s developers to clear things up for you, dear reader. My head is in a quandary, and I\u2019m sure yours is too \u2013 full of images of shrunken heads and steamy, boiling tree frog sap. (Yes EB? What is it now? Then go outside and get some fresh air \u2013 sorry my story made you queasy.)<\/p>\n

Here, without any further fanfare, are the developers of Listhings to clarify things for you:<\/p>\n
