1. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium, where code stored in the non-transitory computer readable medium when executed by a computer performs operations, the operations comprising: maintaining, in the computer, a graphical information note application, a plurality of program elements including an application, data storage entities, and dynamic features including actions, action sequences, events, and event sequences;associating information with the plurality of program elements that are capable of being processed in a software environment generated by an operating system;executing the graphical information note application in response to a processing of a program element of the plurality of program elements in the software environment;displaying a graphical information note that includes the associated information, in response to the execution of the graphical information note application; andtransferring the graphical information note from the computer to a mobile device to control actions associated with the mobile device, wherein:displayed graphical information notes are sorted by timestamps, priority level, and content;priority levels are indicated redundantly both via shading and via area occupied by a bar in a priority level indicator of the graphical information note;a smaller area occupied by the bar in the priority level indicator provides an indication of a lower priority level in comparison to a larger area;a lighter shading of the bar in the priority level indicator provides an indication of a lower priority level in comparison to a darker shading; andthe graphical information note is a first graphical information note, wherein in response to processing a first program element, the first graphical information note is displayed, and wherein the first graphical information note is also displayed in response to processing a second program element that is different from the first program element. 2. The computer readable storage medium of claim 1, wherein the first program element corresponds to an opening of a word processing application and the second program element corresponds to a printing from a selected application. 3. The computer readable storage of claim 2, wherein the first graphical information note is also displayed in response to processing a third program element that is different from the first and second program elements, and wherein the third program element is an attempt to lock the computer. 4. The computer readable storage medium of claim 3, wherein priority is determined via observation of at least one of the shading and the area occupied by the bar, and wherein the graphical information note displays a prompt to look at a selected website, in response to an opening of an Internet browser window. 5. The computer readable storage medium of claim 4, wherein the graphical information note provides an alert, in response to an attempt to hibernate a computational device. 6. The computer readable storage medium of claim 5, wherein pressing of a selected button, displays all graphical information notes. 7. The computer readable storage medium of claim 6, wherein a timed expiration mechanism is used for removal of the graphical information note. 8. A method, comprising: maintaining, in a computer, a graphical information note application, a plurality of program elements including an application, data storage entities, and dynamic features including actions, action sequences, events, and event sequences;associating information with the plurality of program elements that are capable of being processed in a software environment generated by an operating system;executing the graphical information note application in response to a processing of a program element of the plurality of program elements in the software environment;displaying a graphical information note that includes the associated information, in response to the execution of the graphical information note application; andtransferring the graphical information note from the computer to a mobile device to control actions associated with the mobile device, wherein:displayed graphical information notes are sorted by timestamps, priority level, and content;priority levels are indicated redundantly both via shading and via area occupied by a bar in a priority level indicator of the graphical information note;a smaller area occupied by the bar in the priority level indicator provides an indication of a lower priority level in comparison to a larger area;a lighter shading of the bar in the priority level indicator provides an indication of a lower priority level in comparison to a darker shading; andthe graphical information note is a first graphical information note, wherein in response to processing a first program element, the first graphical information note is displayed, and wherein the first graphical information note is also displayed in response to processing a second program element that is different from the first program element. 9. The method of claim 8, wherein the first program element corresponds to an opening of a word processing application and the second program element corresponds to a printing from a selected application. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein the first graphical information note is also displayed in response to processing a third program element that is different from the first and second program elements, and wherein the third program element is an attempt to lock the computer. 11. The method of claim 10, wherein priority is determined via observation of at least one of the shading and the area occupied by the bar, and wherein the graphical information note displays a prompt to look at a selected website, in response to an opening of an Internet browser window. 12. The method of claim 11, wherein the graphical information note provides an alert, in response to an attempt to hibernate a computational device. 13. The method of claim 12, wherein pressing of a selected button, displays all graphical information notes. 14. The method of claim 13, wherein a timed expiration mechanism is used for removal of the graphical information note. 15. A system, comprising: memory; andprocessor coupled to the memory, wherein the processor performs operations, the operations comprising:maintaining, a graphical information note application, a plurality of program elements including an application, data storage entities, and dynamic features including actions, action sequences, events, and event sequences;associating information with the plurality of program elements that are capable of being processed in a software environment generated by an operating system;executing the graphical information note application in response to a processing of a program element of the plurality of program elements in the software environment;displaying a graphical information note that includes the associated information, in response to the execution of the graphical information note application; andtransferring the graphical information note from the computer to a mobile device to control actions associated with the mobile device, wherein:displayed graphical information notes are sorted by timestamps, priority level, and content;priority levels are indicated redundantly both via shading and via area occupied by a bar in a priority level indicator of the graphical information note;a smaller area occupied by the bar in the priority level indicator provides an indication of a lower priority level in comparison to a larger area;a lighter shading of the bar in the priority level indicator provides an indication of a lower priority level in comparison to a darker shading; andthe graphical information note is a first graphical information note, wherein in response to processing a first program element, the first graphical information note is displayed, and wherein the first graphical information note is also displayed in response to processing a second program element that is different from the first program element. 16.
