Those little notes help us organize tasks, quickly write down some information, or simply post reminders. Since we know how productive they can be, today we show you various alternatives for note management applications in Ubuntu.

Notes management applications in Ubuntu

Indicator Stickynotes

First of all, we show you the most similar to the yellow notes of Windows, Indicator Stickynotes. It is an application for Ubuntu (and distributions based on it), quite simple and light. This allows us to create small boxes that "stick" on the desktop and we can organize them according to our taste.
