Postica: Everything Starts with a Simple Idea
Submitted by Louie on 4 June, 2008 - 08:30.


When Simon and Marie first showed me Free125Cards, I immediately thought that it was a great idea. Thoughts rushed in my mind thinking why not make the full package? Why not include other ad sizes? Then it came to me that Free125Card’s strongest feature is its simple objective. The idea was simple yet brilliant. An Idea doesn’t have to be big in order to make a difference. Sometimes we have to trim down an idea to make it better.
In this complex world of technology and gadgets that we live in, sometimes it’s hard to come up with an idea that is both simple and useful. Like in web applications, we want to see more features or something that does everything for us to make our lives easier. We often neglect that sometimes an application works best when it is kept simple and focused on its task.
Today I am going to share with you a new and simple online tool that you might find useful and helpful in jotting down simple notes or ideas and sharing them with your friends.
Postica offers a simple solution in making notes and sharing them online. The simplicity of the service is very attractive and the minimalist interface gives it a nice clean look. The service allows you to stick colored notes in your Postica account. It sounds pretty ordinary but there’s more. Postica also allows you attach items to your sticky notes. This is actually useful if you want to add an image or document along with the note you made. The file size limit for the attachment is still not clear but it is good to assume that they will only allow small sized images and documents.
Postica is not limited to sticking notes and attaching items in your virtual whiteboard. It also has a social networking feature which allows you to share sticky notes to your friends and co-workers. The “share- it” feature lets you put a sticky on someone else’s board by entering their Postica email address. This also works as a file sharing tool to easily send documents and images to your friends through Postica. You can double click your existing sticky note to edit, manage sticky color and share it with your friends. Drag your sticky to the trash box to easily delete a note in your board. It’s just as simple as that.
A simple Idea can sometimes make a big difference.

Louie, I totally agree - sometimes the best ideas are the simple ones. When it becomes too complex, it makes it harder for people to understand, which in turn affects people's ability to want to use it.
I have signed up and tried 'Postica' and it is great and easy to use!
Cheers,
Marie
