digital sticky notes for Linux?

[Joseph Sinclair]

A couple applications to look at:
1) note, it's command-line, but it doesn't create a window.  Written in perl, and allows a couple different storage options.
2) gdesklets This includes a bunch of little desktop items, including StickyNotes, which is pretty close to what you're talking about.
3) Rhinote, another notepad app, supposed to be a bit simpler/smaller than Tomboy.

If you like Tomboy, but don't like that it's built on Mono, you should look at GNotes, which is a straight port of Tomboy to C++.
