This note board allows people to post 'new' or existing notes on it. In other words, it acts as a kind of container for notes. You can place notes into the Note Board in two ways—either by creating a note directly, or by taking an already created note and posting it into the Note Board. Existing notes must be held (get/take) in order to be successfully posted.
