NoteBot is a barebones clone of Sticky Notes meant for quick note-taking minus all the configurations.

You are provided with only the basic settings like note background color and cut/copy/paste/delete/select all; that's it. It is an effective alternative to note-taking with those slightly more feature-rich apps. Need to make a quick note? Pin it to the taskbar for easy access, and you're off. The only thing we would add, which would be helpful, is the ability to keep it always on top... but certainly not a deal-breaker as it is touted as the "Sticky Notes clone without useless functions."

NoteBot is truly a K.I.S.S. app for taking notes, easy to deploy and use when you just need to take a note without a hassle.
