For example, try this experiment on your 10.6 machine. Select some text in TextEdit, then Control-click on the selection. In the contextual menu that appears, you should see three entries at the bottom of the menu: New Note With Selection, New Email With Selection, and Make New Sticky Note.

OS X offers many tools (for instance, the Dock and the Finder's sidebar) that can help you access things you use day in and day out, but there are also a number of ways you can quickly get to items you've used only recently. Learning these techniques will streamline your work.
