NOTICE that in your inventory, there will be selected an item with the name "New Note". If you move quickly, you can type in the name you want while it is still selected. Otherwise ...

4. Name your note: Right-click on the "New Note" item listing. From the pop-up menu, select RENAME. Type the desired name. Hit return. If you make a typo, repeat this process.

5. Edit your note: You can type into the note editing window, or you can drag certain types of items from your inventory into the note editing window. Most common types of items to be included in a note are Landmarks, Snapshots and Textures, although you can include Objects (small ones, please), Garments and other Notecards! Basically, you can stuff just about any SL object or item into a notecard. Suggestion: you could use this to organize and store items in your inventory that you don't need often.
