I would not have imagined that you could do anything else with a Post-It note, but some folks from the MIT Media Lab have invented a system called Quickies. What they do is take ordinary sticky notes, and form them digital and intelligent. These gadgets were developed by a grad student named Pranav Mistry. Quickies use an electronic pad and embedded RFID tags to figure out not only what is

written on the note, but additionally where the not is stickied. “Quickies are just a functional demo right now, but it won’t be enlarged until printing RFID tags on paper get cheap abundant (and RFID readers get ubiquitous enough) that it’ll construct sense to have Post-Its that are just a little bit more intelligent than your average piece of paper. “
