Post-It Notes

Post-It notes are a common office staple. Even with the advance of technologies since the Post-It was invented in 1977, they are still used commonly and most of the time, in my job as a secretary, they are the most favoured way of writing on a report everything I've done wrong, or every tiny spelling mistake I've made! Of course, they can be used in much more positive ways than that, and not just in the office. Post-Its can be used by anyone, even as a kitchen appliance so leave notes on the fridge for your husband/kids/mum without leaving sticky marks everywhere or without having to invest in a drawing/cork board.

Post it notes are small square shaped papers that are sticky down one side. They come in a block form and are available in lots of different colours including pastels and neons. You can find them in any stationary shop for a relatively cheap price and they come in handy for all sorts of different situations. I find these notes so convenient and use them almost everyday.

The sticky part peels away very easily and it never rips the next bit of paper that is on the pad. The only ...  Read the complete review

Sizes and colours vary - some Post Its can be in neon colours and some Post Its can be very tiny indeed - so they can be used in very many ways. They are very throwaway - there is nothing to be done with them but bin them once used. You can recycle - but this seems odd when the post its are ...  Read the complete review

Ah, the humble post it - what a clever little invention. We've all seen them, little yellow rectangles you can tear off a block with a sticky strip so you can attach them to walls, Tv screens, and anywhere else you may wish to prominently display a message . The low-tack, reusable adhesive on the back of post it notes was actually invented by accident by a fellow named Dr Spencer Silver, a scientist at 3M in 1968 . It was cool and all, but it was only glue, and not a very strong one at that, so while it was interesting, it had no use - until in 1974 ,a friend and work colleague of Dr Silvers, Art Fry hit upon using the glue to stick bookmarks into his hymn ...  Read the complete review
