Actually, after thinking on this, I think what I really want is the ability to write some text ("UPS Package"), then select that text, and make it a link to a completely different webpage ("http://www.ups.com/whatever"). Does that make sense? I think what your original comment meant was to make it so that if you type "www.google.com" in your note, it becomes a link that you can click.

The difference I see is that some links I want to keep are long (http://www.thriftycomputer.com/product/Logitech-Quickcam-Deluxe-for-Notebooks-Webcam.html), and therefore take up lots of space on my desktop. What I'd like is "Webcam" which links to that website.

Clickable links is an improvement, but the actual item I'm wishing for is the ability to have some arbitrary text become a link to a website that is not contained in the text.
