While working on the internet using our internet browsers, there often come times when we need to note down the information we see. The physical way to do this is to have a pen and notebook handy to write down what we see. But in case of a lot of material we usually copy the text and paste it in a text program, notepad usually because of its speed.
The time required to open an external text editing program for our notes can be drastically cut down if we have a browser built-in note-taking tool. Such a tool could perhaps operate in a separate tab thus being superbly accessible.
An application like that does exist for Firefox users in the shape of a browser add-on titled QuickNote.
QuickNote is free small add-on that lets us create notes in a new browser tab, a floating window or a sidebar. The hotkey for the notes is CTRL+F7. The program can also be accessed by the Tools menu of Firefox:

Another great way to use sticky notes in Firefox is to use them in a floating mode. This way you will be able to drag it anywhere on the screen and take notes whenever you are browsing. Here is how QuickNote looks like in a floating window:
One of the cool features of QuickNote includes the ability to easily store your notes in a TXT file which you can choose in the add-on’s options. Simply go to QuickNote settings > User Files and select file destination.
Each QuickNote tab is assigned a separate TXT file. The maximum number of tabs QuickNote can store the notes in is four and the options can be set in its options:
You can always categorize your search and save notes according to any specific field by creating multiple tabs that displays in the form of tabs. Here is how QuickNote will look like with four tabs:
Furthermore, you can customize details for each tab. The note-taking area can be customized for each tab by going to Customization tab in QuickNote settings:
Last but not the least, you do not need to worry by failing to find the SAVE button because QuickNotes automatically saves your notes:
QuickNote is a Firefox note-taking add-on which will satisfy all its users; it should not be overlooked.
