GloboNote is a free and easy to use desktop note taking application. It lets you create sticky notes, to-do lists, journals, reminders and other notes in one place. There are no limits to the number of sticky notes you can create. Notes can be organize by groups and search using the search tool.
Have meetings or things need to be reminded? Use GloboNote alarm feature! It allows you to set one time only or recurring alarm, play custom alarm sound (wav, mp3, aiff and au), and set snooze timeout.
Format note's text, change its color, font, size, assign paragraph alignment and set note's transparency level. Create note templates and load it using hotkeys(ALT-1 to ALT-8). Right click anywhere on the note to display more editing functions.
Assign notes by group and display/hide notes according to group. Make note sticky by setting it to stay on top, create checklist/to-do lists, insert images/photos and resize the image automatically, attach files and double click to open the file, detect hyperlinks. Click here for complete list.
GloboNote was developed using Java. It is platform independent and can run on any operating system that has Java 6 or higher installed. All notes are save in database. It uses Swing for UI, JavaDB for storing data and third party libraries for scheduling alarm, logging, playing mp3, etc. Some features like rounded note corners needs Java 6u10 or higher. Eclipse was the IDE used for developing this application.
