Juxio [juhk-see-oh]: From juxtaposition, the placement of two or more elements together to create new meaning.
Juxio is a new visual way to communicate. Individuals and businesses use Juxio to combine images, text and more into mashable, visual streams called Juxes to share across social media and in print.
Juxes are created on both our Web and iPhone apps. In the future we will support additional mobile devices. By making Juxio available anywhere at any time, we hope you find more ways to create new meaning.

* Show creativity.
* Have a voice.
Digital storytelling projects lend themselves well to portfolio assessment."
