White board software

Hopefully not too far off topic, I’m wondering if anybody can point me towards a white board software, specifically one that imitates as closely as possible using a white board with just sticky notes and a pen.

I’ve tried OneNote and Vue to do this, for example, but always spend more time fiddling with the objects on the screen than penning the structure. For example, these programs often require the “square” of the sticky note and its text to be added separately, so that they also have to be moved separately. I’ve looked at specialist packages such as Open-Sankoré and NoteateIt, but they’re way over the top for my minimal needs.

I don’t want to have to resort to buying a real white board - horrendously expensive and space wasting - and I’ve probably trialled loads of programs that would help me but which I can’t bring to mind any more. Has anybody any pointers?

Much obliged!
