Coming from the "Sticks To Your Digital Ribs" department, a Lockergnomie has a tip you should note with a note. You've probably got a dozen yellow stickies all over your desk right now. Don't be ashamed; I couldn't live without 'em either. But there may be a way to keep your tasks more environmentally friendly. Right-click somewhere on your non-Active Desktop, select New, then any given file type (Text Document, Wave Sound, Bitmap Image, etc.). This will be a dummy file -- just select it, tap F2 to rename it, and then enter in a task to be done. Simple! It sits there until you (hopefully complete the task and) delete it.
