STICKY NOTES ON WEBSITES
Leave notes on any website.
See them when you come back.
Put reminders, questions, and ideas directly on the webpages where they make sense — instead of moving the context into another notes app.

Sticky Notes on a webpage
Try this!Keep the reminder next to the idea.
Come back laterThis note stays tied to this page.
HOW IT WORKS
Write the note where the thought happened.
No copying a URL into another app. No trying to remember what the note was about later.
Keep different thoughts separate
Use more than one note when a page gives you several things to remember.
Return to the page later
Your reminder is still connected to the page that gave it meaning.
WHY PAGE-SPECIFIC NOTES HELP
The page is part of the note.
“Compare this later” means much more when it is still sitting next to the exact paragraph, chart, product, or source you were looking at.
- Keep the webpage as the context
- Use notes for reminders, questions, and comparisons
- See the thought again where it becomes useful

Later, compare the examples against the source you saved yesterday.
Compare this with yesterday's source.
Ask whether this changes the conclusion.
