Note
A note in a text document is a small yellow mark that when "moused over" displays a small text message from the person who created the note.
Notes are used to give remarks on a particular area or content of a document. It can be meant for another user of the document or it can serve as a reminder for the original creator.
For example, when you are creating a draft of an article with headings, you may sometimes be unsure of the name of the headings at the start. You can insert a note on these heading to remind you that you may want to change it later. Once you are finished, you can browse through the notes you made and make the necessary changes.
