Welcome to day two of our challenge. Today, we’re talking about your tech — it needs spring cleaning, too. Plus:
Day after day, the remnants of desk lunches, greasy fingerprints, and dust can build up on your tech. Today’s challenge is to use a microfiber cloth to wipe down all of it, including your laptop or monitor screen, phone, and keyboard. Fluffy microfiber cloths are particularly useful, because they’re soft on delicate tech screens, incredibly effective at gathering dust, and they catch microbes that might be lingering on the surfaces you touch daily. Try storing one in or near your desk to help make it a daily habit. A wipedown should take less than five minutes, and can preserve that glossy, just-out-of-the-box shine.
