Who knew that Firefox could help you remember things? I sure didn’t till I did some hunting through the Firefox extensions. There are actually two different extensions that help you remember things in Firefox. They are ReminderFox and QuickNote. So toss out your yellow sticky pads and join us in the twenty first century.
QuickNote is more like your traditional sticky notes you might find at your office supply store. You can set it up as a window that floats above Firefox, as a sidebar inside of Firefox or as a tabbed window in Firefox. There you are given a simple text form that you can till with all the reminders and notes that you want to write down. It is as simple as that.
Now ReminderFox is a little more advanced. ReminderFox is a Firefox extension that displays and manages lists of date-based reminders and tasks. ReminderFox does not seek to be a full-fledged calendar system. In fact, the target audience is anybody that simply wants to remember important dates (birthdays, anniversaries, etc) without having to run a fat calendar application. You don’t get the note taking abilities of QuickNote, but you do get to write your to do lists and reminders.
So which one do you like more? Heck, if you want to be super organized, then you might pick up both extensions.
