The title pretty much says it all. I'm wondering if there is a good post-it note program for Ubuntu 12.04.
I prefer using apt-get install
but if you can direct me to one in the software center that is fine too.

There are quite a few programs that can do that. One of the most well-known is Tomboy, and Screenlets is another option.

Installation
Part of the default Ubuntu installation
Tomboy works great with Dropbox!
Other program is through Screenlets:
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:screenlets-dev/ppa
then
sudo apt-get update
and finally
sudo apt-get install screenlets
Go to Application > Accessories > Screenlets
In the Screenlets-manager window select the screenlet "Lipik" (click on it)
If you want notes to automatically start on log-in check the checkbox "Auto start on login" (bottom-left side)
click "launch/add" (left side)
if you do not want notes to stay always above other windows, right-click on the top of note > Window > uncheck "Keep above"
I use xpad (available in USC). You have to white list it so you can see the icon in the notification area, however.
sudo apt-get install xpad
