Done – simple to-do system

admin — Mon, 22 Feb 2010 23:13:44 +0000

Done is a simple to-do system that helps you focus on what’s important right now. Done takes a new unique approach to to-do lists by simplifying your tasks in a way that exposes only what you need to get done right now with the concept of “shifts.” Shifts are to-do items you aren’t ready to handle yet. They are moved off of your to-do list for the day, and will automagically reappear on your list for the next day. Any undone items you don’t complete by the end of the day, as well as any shifted items from that day are automatically shifted to the next day’s list. This way things stay top of mind, but out of sight until you absolutely must get them done.
