Spiggle Memos

Spiggle Memos is a lightweight software utility that facilitates a user-friendly interface for taking quick notes to keep track of upcoming events, to-do lists, tasks, birthdays, or anything else of importance. It features only basic options.

No setup necessary, besides .NET Framework

The application is not wrapped in a setup pack, so you can drop its files anywhere on the hard drive and double-click the .exe to launch Spiggle Memos. Otherwise, you can keep it stored on a USB flash disk and directly run it on any PC with .NET Framework. It doesn't change the Windows registry settings.

Create and colorize memos

As far as the interface is concerned, the tool opts for a standard window with a minimalistic structure that has a handful of buttons displayed. A new memo can be easily entered by typing or pasting text.
It's possible to add as many memos as you wish, add highlights and customize the colors to tell apart different memos easier, edit the description of any selected entry, as well as to delete any item from the list.
There is no option implemented for removing multiple selected entries at the same time or for clearing everything. Apart from the fact that you can find out the number of total memos you have, there are no other noteworthy options available here.

Evaluation and conclusion

As expected, it didn't put a strain on the overall performance of the computer in our tests, thanks to the fact that it needed a low amount of CPU and RAM to work properly. No error dialogs popped up and it didn't hang or crash.
Although it doesn't integrate richer options and configuration settings, Spiggle Memos provides you with a simple and straightforward solution for quickly taking notes to mark important events.
