Stixy is a free, online tool for creating, collaborating and sharing. It is a type of online bulletin board. You can create as many Stixyboards as you want so that you can organize projects. Use it for scheduling, family events, work projects, school projects, and more. You can add notes, documents, photos, and to do lists.
You can easily share your Stixyboard with anyone (private only to those invited, or open it up to the public). I like the fact that you can easily add content using the widgets and have the freedom to organize your notes and content anyway you want.
This could be a great tool for schools, teachers, and students to use for projects and collaboration.
