About Stixy

Stixy helps users organize their world on flexible, shareable Web-based bulletin boards called Stixyboards. Unlike most personal productivity or project management software, Stixy doesn’t dictate how users should organize their information. Users can create tasks, appointments, files, photos, notes, and bookmarks on their Stixyboards, organized in whatever way makes sense to them. Then they can share Stixyboards with friends, family, and colleagues. Everyone plays a variety of roles in life: father, volunteer for the PTA, project manager at work, country club member, and so on. In each of these roles, people need to collect, arrange, and share information. Software developers have sought for years to create the “perfect” productivity application, but most fail for a simple reason: they force users to conform to a developer’s notions of how users conceptualize their personal information. Stixy was created to serve people who need to organize their lives – that is, virtually everyone – but who don’t have the time or inclination to adapt their habits to a piece of software. Stixyboards are designed to be instantly familiar to anyone who’s used a regular bulletin board. Moreover, Stixy recognizes that in today’s world, investments in personal organization reap the highest returns when information can be shared with others. Stixyboards are easily shared with family, friends, and colleagues for open collaboration. Stixy was created specifically for everyday users – not Outlook jockeys or project management experts. The company’s founders, specialists in usability and information design, reject past approaches to information management. Unlike other productivity applications, Stixy’s free-form design imposes no boundaries on how users lay out, organize, or share their notes, pictures, Web clippings, or tasks.
