sticky-notes

Hi,

I want to synchronize the windows 7 Sticky Notes file, notwithstanding Martha's excellent points in: How do I move Sticky Notes content to another computer.

On different machines %appdata% will point to different physical locations. So I want to move the location to a common one that I use to synchronize other stuff.

I had a quick look in the registry and couldn't see any pointers there.

TIA Paolo
