A little printer / dispenser, built into the screen
surround on your laptop or monitor.
Every now and then you find a yellow sticky note
attached to the edge of your screen, where an
advertiser has paid a premium to get an ad in front of
you, by paying to activate the secret printer built
into
your screen.
No-one is ever told how the system works; the notes
just appear occasionally, first thing in the morning.

UnaBubba, Your mind should be sold for scientific
discovery. |

I just don't like yellow. May I get one with pink? [+] |
|

This is funny. And cute, you cutie. + |
|
| |
You can have pink, [xandram]. Just for you. |
|

I like creating little mysteries like this. [+] |

I thought of it as an alternative to the crappy "yellow
post-it" software apps that people have started using. |

Periodically your display is going to need to be reloaded with a new set of post-its. |
|
| |
This will require some plausible excuse for service of your monitor, perhaps loading fresh pixels in it, or maybe you get periodic free upgrades to larger displays. |
|
| |
The free upgrade path would be the easiest way to
maintain the deception. |
