Yeah I don't get what a usb "stick" has to do with reminding you to do things. I guess you could argue that they are called "memory" sticks and post-it helps when your memory is lacking. But I don't think that connection works. At first, I really didn't know what it was. Then I saw someone say usb stick and I saw the resemblance, but the first thing I thought was "So what? Usb's are gonna help me remember stuff now?"
I just don't think it works. I agree with krautland above... take it to that big farm where bad ideas can play and run free... That's where all my dogs from when I was a little kid live!
Ok, so it's a 'something that looks like something else' ad, I thought there was a little bit of a connection to the memory function that Post-it notes play to the memory storage of a USB stick which is mimiced in the visual pun of what Post-its are used for with bookmarking. I guess it's not gelling.
There are a lot of Post-it ideas going around, I happen to work on it for real and this was only one which didn't go anywhere and I can see why. Thanks for honest critiques.

i like the idea, the angle should be a little bit from side,
so it's clear to everyone that it's a book

Is it s'posed to look like a hilighter or something?
It's either far too brilliant for me, or the opposite of that :)

USB memory stick, that's a hint.
That's not a hint. That's giving the answer.

I just want him to think... "Oh, riiiight".
Everyone's embarressed themselves by not getting something at one time or another.
then it means I'm really stupid not to think like that before you said it.
or,.. it's just not obvious and too pushy ?
what the @&%^$ is going on here?
Any comments on the idea?
I had absolutely no idea this was supposed to be a usb stick until someone in the comments mentioned it.
kill it.
I have an idea with this one.
Take this post-it and stick into a cover and write "read me" ;]
Anyway I can understand your version also.
So what if it's a stick. I still don't get it.

Oh and what's with all the post-it rage?

interesting, but probably using different colors could be more clear...
