Ardoise
(blackboard) allows you to write/draw/erase everything (useful
reminder). At launch (and at start of Windows) is displayed a
transparent small version of your blackboard status "Hide mode" and in
"Draw mode" you may use your blackboard like a real one, using chalks
to draw/write and a sponge to erase (right click to switch
tool).Includes a powerful automatic self-update mechanism when new
versions are available. 7 levels of memorization; for example one per
day of week, which is very practical to prepare your week planning!
Last used/displayed level is memorized, so don't forget to change to
next level before switching off your computer, thus it will be up to
date as a reminder for the next day after booting. Sync system has been
added (using your own FTP parameters) in order to get harmonized
contents of your Ardoise, for example between home, office etc...
