I am sure most of us like to write down note in computer as temporary note to refer later. So, do you know what’s the fastest way to open a word processor? I myself always open windows notepad by using “notepad” command in RUN. Now, I got better way or should say fastest and easiest way to do it.
There are at least 2 methods on my hand, it depends on your needs.
1. Shortcut Key
Instead of type in “notepad” to RUN it everytime, the fastest way is to create shortcut key. To create shortcut key, simply right click on your desktop. Click New > Shortcut. Type in “notepad” in the item field then Finished. After the shortcut has been created, right click on it and go to properties. In Shortcut Key field, press your desire shortcut keys combination. As for me, I pressed “Ctrl + 1” then Apply.
Now, I can call out a notepad by pressing Control + 1 within a second. No typing, no mouse click, no hassle. Some time I just want to copy and paste some codes, phone number or website url for reference later.
2. Web Notepad
Sometime you want more than a simple notepad such as auto-save, multiple notepads and browse functions. Writer online word processor is a web notepad writer that allow you to write note in fastest way.
Just browse to the web writer, no login needed. It use your cookie to indentify your note access. You can use all your normal windows shortcut keys to control the online notepad. Ctrl+N for new file, Ctrl+S to save file or wait for your notepad to be save automatically. At bottom of the message field, you may browse your saved files or delete files. Although the interface looks like DOS-based text editor, it works perfectly for my needs. And of course, it’s Free! 
Hope you like it.

I see that you’re looking for a fast an easy way to take and save notes on your computer. You’re definitely not the only person looking for a program (or a way) to do that, so we came up with a
Note Software called NoteScribe which will help you with not only creating notes on your computer, but you can organize them by categories and keywords. That way, you’ll be able to find your notes right away, and you can begin entering notes with the click of a button. If your notes are related you can save them in a category (named by you) and find them quickly. if you can’t remember where you saved them you can use the Global Search function which allows you to search for a word or phrase through out your notes.
Give it a try, and let me know what you think!

AhTim,
We’d love to give it away for free, but unfortunately, we wouldn’t be able to eat!
We do have a 30-day free trial, and we hope that it’s good enough that $21 dollars will be nothing!
Check it out, and please let us know what you think. I hope your readers will try it too, we could use the feedback. Thanks!
