Done!

Posted March 21, 2006 —

Well folks, it’s been fun, but I’ve decided to close up To-Done. It’s not so much that I don’t have time for it anymore, it’s just that I don’t have a whole lot more to say on a regular basis. Maybe I’ll re-open it down the road, but for now I’ll feel much better if I just put it to rest. In the meantime be sure and check my weekly column at Lifehacker!

Thanks for reading and joining in on the various discussions we’ve had. It’s been great fun while it lasted and I hope I helped some of y’all with your work/life balance.

Yours,

D. Keith Robinson

Thanks for all the advice… sad to see To-Done go.

Kory Twaites on March 21, 2006 said:

It’s sad to see you go. We’ll miss all the good articles and advice.

Bruno on March 21, 2006 said:

Sad to see if go, it’s a beautifully designed website with great advice. Did you consider offering for adoption? Or perhaps if the topic was not so limited?

Thank you for all the advice.

Keith on March 21, 2006 said:

Bruno—I did think of that. But in the end it’s my site and I wasn’t too comfortable to keep someone else tied to it. Think of it as a book. You can go back and read it whenever you want. Much of what’s in here is pretty timeless.

patrick h. lauke on March 21, 2006 said:

been a pleasure to read. maybe you could make the occasional return?

Bryan Villarin on March 21, 2006 said:

Best of luck to wherever life takes you from here – it’s been nice reading your material! :)

Jeff W. on March 21, 2006 said:

Now I can actually get some work done! :) Thanks for the postings! See you on Lifehacker.

Dale Cruse on March 21, 2006 said:

So long and thanks for all the fish.

Jorgeq on March 21, 2006 said:

I must say that I will truely miss your amazing advise no life topics but at the same time I understand how difficult it can get running a blog. Take care and I’ll now subscribe to Lifehacker for your pearls of wisdom.

Marg on March 21, 2006 said:

Brilliant posts Keith! Will miss you but will continue sifting through LifeHack – it’s what keeps me sane! :oP

Silvia on March 21, 2006 said:

Lifehacker has a huge collecton of good articles and Keith is the associated editor. I have its rss in My Yahoo! and everyday I choose and read two or three articles. Among the best are Keith so if you visit it you won’t miss his good comments.

To Keith,
Anyway, I did enjoy a lot your blog for months!
Thanks a lot,
Silvia

Kerry Woo on March 21, 2006 said:

Keith, you did a fanstastic job – when I was blogging about visiting 100 blogs in 100 days series, I’m glad you made the list at # 40 at http://www.wonderdawg777.blogspot.com/.

Look forward to your contributions at LifeHacker!

Take care and I wish you the best – now git er done !

Crazoo on March 21, 2006 said:

Ahh..don’t close it up!

I’m sure you will have things to say, even if it’s just once a month.

Well good luck with everything!

Charles Follymacher on March 22, 2006 said:

Thanks very much for creating this site, Keith. It’s been a great help. May your archives live forever.

Julian Schrader on March 22, 2006 said:

What a bummer!

I really like this site and the articles – I’ll keep the feed, in hope for new contributions!

Matthew Cornell on March 22, 2006 said:

Thanks for the great blog. Good luck!

OK on March 22, 2006 said:

Thank you so much for your brilliant articles!

keith bohanna on March 22, 2006 said:

I had to shut down a blog recently for the same reason of not being able to give it focus. Yours is the right decision.

Enjoyed it while it was going – one of my earlier blog subscriptions!

Geoff on March 22, 2006 said:

Sad to see the site go, as I only became acquainted with it relatively recently. Are you going to leave the site up for archival viewing? Or take it down completely?

zx on March 22, 2006 said:

it’s about what your write and not how much you write:) your site is very unique, so please reconsider:)

Erin on March 22, 2006 said:

Thanks for the memories. I’ll be following the lifehacker notes.

Norbert Mocsnik on March 22, 2006 said:

Thank you so much for helping us improve.

Please consider leaving the site open so you can post any time it comes to mind. The hassle that comes with re-opening a site might hold you back from posting valuable entries again.

Good luck with your Lifehacker column, I’ll be following it as well.

Wow Wow! What happened!
Man, this was an awesome blog to stop by for some tips. Anyway, I enjoyed the time I spent here like everyone else.

Thank you for helping us to improve our lives sharing tips, and I will read you at LifeHacker!

Best of lucks!

Bad news to hear about. There is so much wisdom distilled in your post. Please reconsider your idea , at least in a near future.

Oh my! I am a late bloomer and just started reading your blogs a month ago. Pretty sad it has closed already. Tell us its your April fools chip-in.

Mignon on April 3, 2006 said:

How awful is this? I just found Go-Done today! And it’s OVER. So a question. Will the site still be available so I can read the archives? I do hope so. What I”ve read so far speaks to my own particular soul.

Edward on April 5, 2006 said:

sheds tear

It is really sad to see this place go, I would consider myself a pretty frequent visitor to this site and have found many of the articles posted here very helpful. I really hope that you do some day reopen the site and start posting again. But, then again, ya gotta know when to hold em’ and when to fold em’.

Good Luck to ya guys. And I will surely be reading your other column!

Paul on April 25, 2006 said:

Thanks for the posts. Good luck with everything.

Ben on May 17, 2006 said:

I haven’t been coming here long, but I’ve really enjoyed reading this site; I think I’ve learned a lot from it, so thank you! Good luck with whatever you do in future.

Aadarsh on May 22, 2006 said:

Thanks for all the advice!!!
I hope you’d come once in a while to let us know you are around!
Good luck and cheers!!!

thanks for your unselfish posts – much appreciated!

Sam on June 6, 2006 said:

Hey buddy,
I arrived on this site thru del.icio.us and it has been extremely interesting reading your articles ! You are spot on in your attitude. It is a pitty that you are stopping this blog I was starting to really enjoy it ! Nevertheless, best of luck for your future projects,

Sam

Dayle Ann on June 12, 2006 said:

Over the years, you’ve helped me keep my dream of my own home-based business alive—and I’ve learned a lot from reading your site. Ironic that just as I am stepping out, you are stepping back. That’s fine, it is part of the process of living our lives for ourselves. I’m glad I am getting a chance to say thanks for all your sharing. It would have felt empty had I waited… and found you just gone! See you over there.

Do you leave the page online so we are all able to use it as reference ?

Steve Harold - Hypnotherapist on September 20, 2006 said:

Just come across your site… I hope you decide to ressurrect it soon

Mich on September 29, 2006 said:

I just stumbled on your site and was amazed at how nice your articles were. I hope you’re not really closing this down.

Elle on October 7, 2006 said:

Hope you’ll keep this site up for awhile. Lifehacker is one of my favorite sites.

But I’d just like to know, how did you do it? That is, have a popular blog that was only a year old? My blog is approaching two years and I have no readers. Any advice?

Darren Lee on November 25, 2006 said:

This is a great site about motivation… it’s sad thing it is over… my tribute to the author and all the best in everything he do….
